Pros

There is a small orchard at the back of the building with a couple of nice apple trees. The building is made of quite nice bricks.

Cons

The company is owned/operated by a husband and wife team and the atmosphere in the office can feel like Satan's broth if there has been any kind of disagreement between them. The MD does not tolerate sickness and on the odd occasion someone takes a day due to illness, they will return childish silent treatment and furious eyes of disapproval. The company is built on 80's style sales techniques (which didn't even work in the 80's) from the Ladybird book of business development and for such a tiny company, seems unable to change to adapt to the modern world. Staff don't tend to last long with the company due to the atmosphere and the company's inability to deliver on goals and promises to staff. I would air on the side of caution with this one.......

Wow thanks for the review and advice, you went to town there. We'll pick some constructive criticism out and take action. If there are any cash flow 'problems' its through supporting a self titled 'Managing Consultant' who didn't meet any targets or even deliver any revenue. But thanks again and good luck for the future. Sim
