Pros

Lots of responsibility and good, strong brands to work on. Good work/life balance. Good career opportunities.

Cons

Salaries are generally low that's why there is a very negative atmosphere in the office. The work/life balance is quite good in my position but many people are struggling with the work load. The management is not supportive, line managers don't stand up for their people. There are many inexperienced people in manager positions.
