Pros

Competitive pay and benefits. Lovely people within the organisation, unfortunately a great deal were made redundant

Cons

There have been some very questionable decisions that have been made over the last few years and a huge number of talented and brilliant people have been lost through redundancy, The company has been broken up and fragmented, and what is left is a shadow of its former glory. The last couple of years of my tenure were very sad and I felt disappointed in the leadership. The leadership were duplicitous and regularly misled employees in communications i.e. they communicated their intent, stance and importantly what they were not going to do, and then did what they said they wouldn't do....more than once. Employees never felt like they were getting the full story, which obviously doesn't build trust!

Pros

If you are lazy, this is the place for you

Cons

If you are somewhat competent, don’t worry, management doesn’t care. Employees are part of their politics game. From orders delay to customer complaints, management’s resolutions are to put in more tedious complicated system and lay off actual workers. Constant restructuring every 6 months with no idea what they want. Base pay is below average. Not sure why investors are still investing and why customers are still buying. I would give 0 star if I can.
