Pros

Trauma bonded with other girls in the same toxic environment, good opportunity to practice steeling your nerves when being belittled and disrespected.

Cons

Where to start, if you yawn you will be shushed, if you whisper you will be shushed, if you look at a colleague you WILL be shushed. Terrible pay and attitude, considering you are made to feel as if the survival of the company rests on your shoulders. Working here stole the light from my eyes, maybe the positives were the friends we made along the way x

Pros

There is literally no one better in the business! It can feel quite a lot sometimes, but if you care about doing well you will absolutely thrive here! They take care of you so well and I was absolutely gutted to leave to move to London.

Cons
