Pros

Some good people and opportunity for Development

Cons

When cut backs kick in they will look after the big boys many who do literally nothing will be safe, like there is a public school boy club all looking after each other

Pros

The offer flexibilty to work from home, the offices are beautiful and subsidised lunch and shop is great.

Cons

Onboarding was awful with no training or support given, after a month of being their I was told in an open meeting that my role was being made redundant (despite only having spoken to my manager once in that time as they were based in SA). I then applied for another position internally, which I got, only to find that the line manager was unwell due to stress so again I had no onboarding or handover of any kind. Eventually I got a line manager but she was completely lost as to what she was doing also. Basically they buy up companies with the patchwork of employees its impossible to tell who does what or what the structure is. I would avoid like the plague.
