Pros

Nothing, if you are an alcoholic you might like it. These lot get drunk every second day on company expenses covered booze.

Cons

I developed a stomach problem from working at this toxic place. The high school culture and the favouritism along with the incompetence of management is unimaginable. The favouritism specifically is insane. There were people that would ghost and not work for days and still get rewards because they were friends with their line manager. Managers would get whoever they disliked fired based on false accusations and twisting words. To add to that, the salary was super low and there’s 0 career prospect
