Good but could be better

Pros

- Salary is good but only once you reach a certain level - Staff and managers are generally kind and helpful - Nice and comfortable office space - Big enough department so there is support available if you have issues with anything - Good flexibility. They want people to come into the office but there is not a lot of pressure to.

Cons

- There has been a lot of downsizing of the Tech Comms department in the last few years with roles being outsourced and just eliminated outright. Tech Comms is not promoted well or valued by the wider organisation. - Starting salary and even beyond that is not good at all compare to other similar companies.
