Pros

There really isnt any, I suppose having toilets is nice.

Cons

What can I say that hasn't been said a million times before? It's all true. Is the CEO a nice man? No he isn't. Should he the running a company? No he shouldn't. Has he berated me for over an hour? Yes he did. Have they gone into administration and bought themselves out of administration under a new name? Yes they have.

Pros

The trauma bonding between harassed and anxious employees, if you can call that a pro.

Cons

God where to even begin, from the s3xual harassment by the CEO or the temper tantrums of one of the co-owners to the delusionals of the other one this family run business is just an absolute nightmare and you will ever regret accepting a job there. They lie about your role and pay, there are never any pay rises and you’re expected to do literally anything for them like you’re personal assistants regardless of your supposed position. People get fired out of the blue for no reason whatsoever and everyone else has to take on the extra work. Upper management are lazy and tyrannical, you have zero support but get berated for things out of your control or have no knowledge of. The CEO is not allowed to hold that position but he does and they’ve just lie to Company House about their filings.
