Pros

Free breakfast to get you ready for what will probably be a rough day. Alcohol on Fridays to help you get over what was probably a rough week. (I think you can tell from this list there's not a lot to love)

Cons

I genuinely don't know where to start... I feel as though this list has been rehashed over and over again by all recent reviews but here we go: They sell people the dream when trying to get them onboard. - "We have so many great benefits" (many of which we will discontinue and then tell you that have no right to complain as they don't actually form part of your contract) - "We are all about training and employee growth within the business" (but you will soon see us dissolve the current management team and hire externally for all positions. You will also see people who have worked for the business for years apply for these roles and be overlooked/outright ignored) - "The culture here is so great - we are one big team" (but please don't tell us if you are being bullied - we probably won't address the issue and will make you feel like maybe you should go if you're not happy here. Yes, we know we have had lots of bullying complaints about that same person - but what do you want us to do about it?) - "The CEO is really hands on - this is a family owned business, after all" (yes, he will pop up every now and then with his big plan. Although, it's not a plan... it's an elongated buzzword. And you will be expected to contribute, but no one will tell you how unless you're doing it wrong)
