      Pros

      A reasonable employer with good flexi time benefits. Pay was good.

      Cons

      Office culture was pretty dull and lifeless. Organisational change happens at a glacial rate which can be quite defeating.

      Workload can be varied Team Leaders and Area managers are supportive , approachable and knowledgeable All my team leaders were always good to me - supportive, interested in my performance , helpful with AL and other days off; but most of all they all trusted my judgements and had confidence in my handling of my workload

      Cons

      Workload could be at times heavy
