Pros

Although most have moved on, there remain a few good people across the business.

Cons

The company was struggling with growth as dire as the UK economy's, and there were a lot of redundancies and cost-saving initiatives, including removing paper towels from the toilets. Working as part of the sales organisation here is a complete dystopia, with "total minutes spent on phone" considered a key metric and displayed on large screens across the office- management really haven't got a clue! Managers tend to be tenured individuals who joined years ago and were promoted during times when business was good. Anyone below Steve Newbold has zero autonomy so you're wasting your breath expressing concerns / ideas to your manager because you're just going to get false promises. The office is a mice-infested, dated building with little natural light. A key employee benefit is "breakfast club", aka free cheap bread and crappy instant coffee- this really epitomises how Centaur values its employees.

Pros

You meet some good folk but they'll leave if they're good at their jobs. Central location good while it lasts.

Cons

Everything is about cost-saving. Very little attention to detail given and it's all about the quick buck. Good staff come and go but the bad ones hang around like a bad smell.

Extremely frustrating place to work

Pros

Central London Location is great

Cons

Really demotivating place to work. Senior management treat employees like children regardless of their level of experience. Really patronising approach to any advice given by emplyees regarding individual markets. Totally run by accountants who have really limited understanding of individual brands.
