Pros

Competitive Pay- Opportunities for Upskilling

Cons

Mismanagement and minor errors by team leaders, such as overassigning work to one employee, can lead to burnout and health concerns. Additionally, there is a lack of privacy regarding surveys about management in the office.

Pros

Pays decent. Overtime abundant. Colleague card.

Cons

Expect way too much of employees Entire business is focused on cost cutting. Union doesn't fight for employees rights. Hyper critical of employee conduct, will discipline you if there's even a single complaint, even if you prove that it is false. No sense of community amongst departments. Too hard to book holidays, if too many are off from unrelated departments you can't have a holiday (even when your department training doesn't overlap) Training lacks a lot of detail. All technology within the business is slow and outdated.
