Pros

Nice workplace environment Good at communicating

Cons

Unfair and double standard bonus structure. The managers bonuses are based on a percentage that's double the percentage of workers so very unfair especially as managers salaries are far bigger. Most of the bonus fund goes to managers up and creates deep ethical and trust issues between management and staff. Union representatives also paid the higher bonus percent.

Pros

The people are fantastic to work with. Mostly a great atmosphere in every location. Work-life balance and activities. Space to move up (but it will take time). Versatile career paths. Offices around the country. Affordable canteen options.

Cons

Barriers to entry for employment Political and social decisions interrupt tactical day-to-day workflows. From a comms perspective, the work can be repetitive/mundane. Low starting salary
