Poor
Pros: - Remote working
- mat & pat leave is very generous
- charity / five back scheme
- corp level culture in US
- high quality customer centres (EBC & MTC).
Cons: - Terrible on boarding program... I came into the business from outside of IT being told I would be trained up well. Then arrived to be told it’s “a sink or swim” environment & I need to figure it out for myself through Microsoft’s online platform & from colleagues. 6 months later told by my manager that no amount of training can replace experience - totally farsical & discheveled company (in the UK anyway). 
- Poor salary compared to other tech companies.
- Many employers seemed extremely arrogant.
- Mostly awful internal tools CRM, Commissions platform etc. 
- employees seem extremely time poor & stressed
