Pros

Cheekwood has a stunning display of gardens.

Cons

The pay and work/life balance for customer-facing positions is unsustainable. Upper management is entirely unreceptive to upward mobility within the company. I was assigned an onslaught of new responsibilities with no increase in compensation or benefits.
