Pros

I worked as a part-time Customer Service Associate in the Cardiff call centre when I was a student. There was an awesome working environment--nearly everyone was cheerful and friendly all the time, the team leaders worked really hard to make sure everyone felt valued and had incentives to work hard, benefits were very good and the pay was about 50% more than similar jobs. The training was ongoing and very comprehensive, and it was easy to contact management staff in case of queries or problems. I really don't think you could beat it for a part-time job at uni.

Cons

The minimum part-time hours were 15/week, which is quite a lot to do alongside a degree. I'd suggest quitting early in your final year at uni to preserve your sanity and not get too stressed. Hours were slightly less flexible than you'd expect from a similar job, but not unreasonably so. When I left at the end of 2006, a lot of extra products were being offered but the staff hadn't been increased significantly, so it got very busy and hectic; I don't know if this has now been rectified.

Pros

The IT department has a massive budget. Large investment is given to the infrastructure and gives the opportunity to play with the latest technology. The IT Department is held in good esteam.

Cons

Staff are allowed to grow and take on challenges, but often hung out to dry and not given the support they need to help with the new challenges. There is a lack of recognition when things go wrong, often focusing on the negative. There is confusion around the benefits package having some benefits removed from some teams and given to others. Some of the benefits advertised are only available to select departments, such as the nine day fortnight.

Pros

Financially strong company with a focus on growth and increasing market share. They will be around for a long time. In the current day and age of reducing benefits to control costs, they came up with good ways to manage costs without pulling benefits away from employees. Good career path possible in some departments.

Cons

Worked in an area of the organization that they decided to sell off, despite the outstanding performance of recent years. The costs incurred by a prior regime and their poor decisions as well as a chance to change focus and free-up capital were the motivating factors. Poor decision in a specific market that is seeing a dramaticly shrinking competitive environment where market share was easy to increase in a profitable manner. Current departmental management had a track record of outstanding success, but the company wanted to free up capital.
