Pros

Occasional free 'celebratory' meals for owners / directors birthdays - or a party in the car park. Exceedingly exciting opportunities to be part of the next TFS music video - you can literally hear the CEO thinking "look at what i can make these idiots do"! Overpriced (paid for) Xmas parties at Menagerie or The Ivy - if you've managed to make it onto the list of favourites at the time - or if there's simply now a space and you're an afterthought. Why not! Free massage once a month! No wait, the bills didn't get paid. Access to the latest tools to do your job to the best of your ability! No - we're innovative without access to the innovation! Industry leading sick, holiday, and bereavement policies - Said no industry ever. Access to a training budget - but you have to pitch to get your request put through by which time it's a) too late for the course / conference, or b) it's simply ignored in the first instance. Equal opportunities - If you can make it onto the list of favourites - then the opportunities are equal for everyone. A chance to make new friends! With 50 - 60% staff turnover rate in Head Office alone, you'll be sure to meet lots of new people. The opportunity to work 7 days a week whilst getting paid for 5! That's what we call "added value". To be 'tested' by Directors to see if you'll pick up someone elses mess at 11pm on a Saturday night, and wait for the thanks you'll get afterwards - real gratitude. The opportunity to learn from a leadership team you can truly put your faith in! That they'll come in at half 9 to 10am every day and fully trust your expertise to tell them what's happening in the business - because they honestly don't have a clue! The latest technology at your fingertips - no that's the fingerprint reader / clocking in / out machine so they know how much to dock your wages when you're late.

Cons

Can't think of one... More than one however isn't difficult to imagine!

They just were acquired by another company and not sure if the company structure will remain.
