Pros

Staff benefits programme, amazing hard working staff and team players on the shop floor.

Cons

Undervalued, understaffed, bad management from the top, establishments are run from a desk at the top with little say in school. Trying to get new IT to be able to do your job is like pulling teeth, no value for what you do when you go above and beyond. Penalised for being off for childcare reasons which goes unpaid and goes on your absence record, regardless of the hard work you put in day to day, which for a company that looks after children is questionable. No trust in staff. Not flexible. computer says no is pretty much the answer given for any request - including flexible working. Brilliant staff leaving because they have been treated badly. Staff well-being is none existent. Rude directors whose manner with the staff on the ground is beyond disgraceful.
