Pros

A comfortable place to work at with all the necessary perks and occasional opportunities for promotions — so comfortable in fact it's less a workplace than a retirement village.

Cons

Too many old people at the top who remain fixed on traditional ways of getting things done. There's no room for creativity or independent thinking here.

Pros

Great colleagues, fulfilling work, good career opportunities if you know how to hustle (that's not saying much tho)

Cons

Poor career opportunities if you're unwilling to play the game, long hours, poor salary and benefits, poor salary increments, poor management decisions. Upper management is slow on the uptake to trends, dont know their products as well and don't know what to do with digital. Adverse to risk and only willing to push for short-term profit results. Unwilling to take creative risks even though there isn't much to lose already anyway.

Pros

Favourite manager of all time. He was very knowledgeable and helpful and always willing to share his knowledge.

Cons

The only cons was the sudden retrenchment.
