Overall good place to work
Pros: Transparent promotion, feedback and salary information internally, lots of opportunities for development, early responsibility and good training.  Culture of innovation. Mostly helpful and friendly colleagues who are very bright and knowledgeable and really good to work with. Genuinely encourage flexible working and trusting people with their work. Common to work 4 days and/or from home say 1 day a week, or different work patterns.
Cons: Definitely an element of politics and playing the game/being seen to be saying the right things, especially to progress. Obviously challenging and pressured as a job. Although officially more inclusive, often still quite an 'up or out' culture, not suitable for someone who just wants to do their job 9-5:30 and go home (less relevant in admin/secretarial roles). Work life balance good for a relatively high pressured job due to flexibility and support but not great relative to vast majority of jobs. Busy periods often 50h per week or more, occasionally 60h. Usually 40-45hs.
