Pros

Good work life balance. Lots of opportunities to move internally. Good if you get made redundant, they help you find a new role while continuing to pay you

Cons

Say you get a yearly pay increase but the most I’ve heard people get is 1%. Only get statutory maternity leave. If you want to move internally some managers don’t like it so you feel like you can’t apply for jobs. Constantly making redundancies. Pretend to care about the employees but do nothing to make people want to stay

Pros

Really great manager. Remote work major plus. No micro management. Great pay

Cons

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Great benefits including PTO, health care and other benefits.

Cons

Very much a brother-in-law feel when it comes to promotions and praise. If you aren't in the cool club, you will be shunned and left out. Management also makes business decisions without understanding the niche part of the various industries.
