Pros

Kind colleagues Partner Dining Room Simple work

Cons

Snooty customers Too many managers - felt impersonal. Didn't even meet a manager on my floor for a week and just had to work it out through the help of other temps. Stressful at times Boring and long online training (which is then impossible to remember)
