Pros

I got to decorate my desk however i wanted

Cons

everything else in its entirety. It might seem dramatic to say this place made me suicidal, but scarily this is not false. the management drove me into a downward spiral, i absolutely lost my mind constantly worrying. Managers were AWFUL for talking about you when you could quite clearly hear them, i sat next to my team manager and they would 'whisper' about me but i could hear everything..they would stare at you whilst whispering it was almost comical how obvious it was!why they couldnt just go in the meeting room and discuss it I don't know. the micro managment is awful, and not to mention everyone youre supposed to go to for help makes you feel so incredibly stupid for asking, and they all have different answers to each other, but then it's your fault that you get it wrong??? the training is dire and boring, you either get it or if you don't then sorry bye...and one of the biggest things i noticed was there is NEVER any positive reinforcement, plenty of telling you what you did wrong but never any positive. if you did want positive reinforcement you had to email it in yourself???? i cant believe I lasted there for as long as i did. I left in October and haven't had a job since because they put me off for life working for a big company full time.Basically this job ruined my mental health, I would go home everyday thinking I was so stupid and incompetent i didn't see the point in living anymore. the day they ended my probation was the best day ever. Oh and also id just like to note the blatant racism that happened, and the 'lad' behaviour. It was so awkward and disgusting and I wish i recorded it on my phone.

Pros

Relatively easy going, most staff friendly.

Cons

Little chance of progression, no chance of perfomance related pay, training is poor, poor management, virtually no incentives. They ask "what can we do better?", you make suggestions but they never act on them, especially paying lip service.
