Pros
Future employers can see you can handle anything if you have been here for more than 6 months
Cons
The office was eerily similar to a dungeon with the staff walking on eggshells to avoid the wrath of the up-and-down CEO. There were unrealistic targets which did not make business sense - 40 viewings a week? The only relief was when the CEO took Friday off. After spending nearly 2 years there I still don't know what the companies business plan or vision is - they constantly change their minds. Micromanagement at its worst, everything you did was scrutinised, emails, calls, personal lives etc. were under the microscope and checked. The public sacking of staff was indicative of their scaremongering culture. They would make you feel bad for not staying outside working hours and would email you late in evenings and on the weekends to question you. There were a lot of threatening emails from the directors. The 7 day weeks, 30 minute lunch breaks (monitored) made me exhausted and made some of the staff ill. I would recommend to anyone thinking about working here to think twice, especially as a first job, as they have destroyed some very talented people's confidence. This is not how a company should be run - people are numbers and aren't treated as human beings.
