Pros

Pension contributions are quite high

Cons

The senior leadership are currently going through what can only be described as a war on staff. Since Charlie Nunn came in there have been many changes to policy, none of which have been to the benefit of staff. Morale is at an all time low and every few weeks they do something new to push it down further. From fixing pay rises at substantially below inflation (and forcing the vote to approve it by bribing people by offering a £500 "Xmas bonus" to the lowest earners but only if they accept the low ball pay rise) to implementing a new rule that states you are not allowed to apply for an internal role until after 12 months in a position (and automatically informing your manager when you apply for a job, rather than waiting until you were offered an interview as previous procedure) I could write a long long list of similarly oppressive changes! All of the changes are clearly designed to make people walk rather than having to make them redundant when they inevitably offshore the vast majority of staff (already happening with a huge new base opened up in India). Everything is about cost cutting and to hell with the impact to staff, the worse it is for staff the better is the mentality of Charlie and his crew. All this alongside record profits, pure greed in its most disgusting of forms.
