Pros

- work life balance is good; - good location of offices; - Nice people /colleagues; -Diverse colleagues; - Increased collaboration between teams; - Better wifi - flexible start/ leave times

Cons

- Old, outdated methodology. Clients don't want to buy; - open plan is noisy; -Not enough transparency. Decisions are made in London, just implemented (not enough consultation) in Cape Town - training is internal, and not good quality; - Medical cover is not good, doesn't take cost of private health care into account. - Pension plan contribution is less than other companies; -Commission for sales is not enough, and sales leave because they can't survive on the basic; - Annual leave (holiday) is not enough and is not competitive, and is less than other similar companies. Discriminates against new employees who get less leave than old staff(who designed the policy); - not enough parking provided for employees. country management / HR give employees hassles about parking and are not willing to help; - hot-desking is bad- makes you isolated from colleagues; - clock based work: office is run like a factory, with employees having to sign in and out - local country management doesn't trust employees to do their work - Printers/ TVs /ACs etc don't work, and take ages to fix - small office, no growth
