Pros

The people I had the pleasure of working with were fantastic it is a pity the majority are no longer with this company due to in my opinion poor management and demoralising absolutely everyone. Some other companies have gained some real invaluable staff.

Cons

The majority of my time with the company was enjoyable but the last 4 months were some of the worst I have experienced in my 20+years of my working life. Targets are high in fact so unrealistic are these targets management almost doubled last years quota with little basis/knowledge/explanation of how they concocted these figures or how we could realistically achieve these as no one hit last years?!? Misstrusted to get on and do the job I have successfully done with no issues for the last 3+ years. Don’t expect to get paid for overtime - working shows is expected as is giving up your free time especially weekends.

Pros

Literally really nothing, this place was horrible and HONESTLY did, NORMALIZE crying while on the Job because of stress

Cons

I joined this company after recently graduating with a degree in Design from a prestigious university. RUN FOR THE HILLS! I “unfortunately ignored” the negative reviews for this company but THEY ARE COMPLETE FACT. I found myself crying in the BATHROOM OFTEN because I apparently “ didn’t take enough notes, didn’t listen well” these “managers” are legacy managers and defend each other over YOU PLEASE PLEASE AVOID! I don’t even post comments online but I do not want someone to experience what I did. P.s even though I was hired as Product Development Assistant, I was FORCED as a “new employee” to go and get food for the owner at lunch everyday so yeah you are a CEO secutaty also. Another “fun” time was when I was called from working to “get ring OF THE FLIES “ in the CEO office.. which resulted in me ACTUALLY HAVING to hang FLY STRIPS al over there! AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!!!!
