Pros

Supportive and friendly colleagues Positive and collaborative work atmosphere Regular social activities that help build team spirit Good work-life balance Understanding and accommodating of family and carer responsibilities

Cons

Career progression is quite slow, particularly within the smaller departments. There appears to be a ceiling when it comes to advancement opportunities. Pay is not as competitive as it could be, though this is a wider issue within the publishing industry rather than specific to the company.
