Pros

The people make the place, we are all in that boat without a paddle There are not many pros Enough said

Cons

Poor management practises Poor development plan No career structure set out in place, and the small amount that is there, is not put into practice effectively Poor pay No London weighting Poor communication Bullying not adequately dealt Encouraging to lie to UKAS but make sure you stick to the forensic code of conduct (conflicting interests) Problems are dealt with in a way that is similar to using a sledgehammer to crack a nut Very reactive than proactive Bad effect on your mental and physical well being
