* easy commute (if you are loving local)
* if you are new in your career, you can use this place for a limited time to gain necessary experience
Cons
* salaries are lower than market average
* bonus is a joke (approx £500 to £1000 before tax per year). if you manage to get any!
* no processes are in place, decisions are made based on your line manager's mood ie one could get study support but the other person wouldn't!
* preferential treatment amongst staff.
* some managers/directors have ego problem. they can act unprofessionally including being sarcastic, shouting or swearing at people!
* no appreciation or recognitions for what you do for the company but managers make big deal out of littlest mistakes!
* SMT gets all the benefits including life insurance, private pension, bicycle scheme and BIG BIG bonuses etc but rest of the staff relies on statutory benefits only!
* Unlike companies who adapted values and ethics of 21st century, this company is really backwards. it is like "put up & shut up" kind of attitude and mental illness is something where it is seen as a weakness!!!
Yearly salary review, annual bonuses of £500 before tax
