A numbers driven collection of companies with no real goal.

Pros

Not many. Some stability due to it being a FTSE 100 company.

Cons

If your face doesn't fit you wont go far. Management promote internally those whom are incapable in their current roles and dont know what to do with them. Sales staff whom cannot sell are rewarded with bulletproof remuneration. Toxic culture where if you speak up to challenge a situation you are destined to never progress.

horrible culture in the sales team

Pros

The brand is global. That's it.

Cons

Horrible culture in the sales team. Management is not smart. Department is mostly girly and they're poisoning and gossiping about you behind your back. Very disappointing and unprofessional. First weeks as a new-hire expect to sit at your desk all day in a full frustration - one will clearly tell you about your future steps, responsibilities, and expectations. They'll horrible treat you. The only acceptable way to successfully stay in the company is to brown-nose the management. That's all.

Pros

When there is something going on its all fun

Cons

Some of the people on the management team are a joke. BD department has a woman that works in it that is a liability and not an asset. The company should have never been bought out and everything would be good. Too much gossip amongst the office.
