Pros

Some of the sites are in extremely beautiful parts of the United Kingdom

Cons

Shockingly poor management, continual introduction of new business models, the senior management are in complete ignorance of the drive and ability of those who make the organisation work. A bullying culture, with HR acting as little more than secret policemen, and a performance development process, that is nothing but systematised cronyism
