Pros

Learn skills from working in every department. Discount card Good relationship with colleagues

Cons

Had security issues over the last 6 months which hasn't gone unnoticed by thieves. Lack of colleagues so it feels like you have to be in two places at once. We are section leaders doing the work of section managers without the pay.
