Pros

Flexible with working pattern and good benefits. Lots of good support from business service departments which helps with workload. Manage my own workload but more support needed when required.

Cons

Tough atmosphere and demanding and little reward for your hard work. Also not agile enough when it comes to working from home due to office politics

This form is in the process of growth/acquisition of other international firms, so it is facing challenges in promotion opportunities and pay raises; and is understaffed.
