Pros

- Location of office - A few lovely colleagues, who want to leave as much as you do

Cons

- Toxic culture. - Low Salaries. - Micromanaging. - Undermining & disrespectful behaviour from managers. - Bad Communication and little to no organisation. - Expected to work beyond the working hours, and told that no one should be leaving on time. - Not enough staff for the amount of work expected. - Unachievable deadlines set by managers & directors - No benefits, even though promised them when offered the job. - no work/life balance - No responsibility taken by management for bad decision making. It’s always someone else’s fault. - Management taking ideas from employees and passing them off as their own. - Expected to do multiple jobs at once, rather than the company employing the necessary people to do the job.

Pros

Clocking out at the end of every day

Cons

Too many to mention but overall the company is run by an egotistical maniac intent on making sure everyone knows who is boss however sadly he has very little actual talent in terms of what is required to run a successful business without the aid of striking the fear of god into your hardworking employees. Managers are suck ups to previously mentioned egotistical maniac who owns the company and throw lower down employees under the bus as if they were at a bowling alley. Overall atmosphere is terrible, the place is anxiety inducing due to multiple threatening emails sent by managers/egotistical maniac. In terms of product produced, this is rarely of a decent quality due to how many corners they want to cut in the sake of profit versus quality/safety etc.
