Good company to learn
Pros: Colleagues and the flexibility to learn new skills
Cons: They have a performance table that you have to meet. However, if you are running at say 94% efficient throughout the year, just before you go for your annual review mysteriously your efficiency drops below the threshold... This is a way that they keep you working extra hours for free. It's not uncommon to be working at 10pm to right a report that no one will ever look at. Also on your pension contributions it's supposed to be say employee pays 4% and employer tops up with 8% etc... Not true, you as the employee pays the full 12%, the pension structure is cleverly set up. If you ever work there, check your payslip ASAP.
