Pros

The London office is great which is good considering the hours are long. Noone wants to work somewhere horrible for such a long period of time. The pantry is also fab.

Cons

The hours are extremely long and should be re considered. There is plenty of research to suggest flexible working options and working smarter is much more productive then working long hours and switching off around 4 because you begin your day around 5am. For those of us who have a long commute because we can’t afford to live in central London, it is extremely tiresome coming in so early and leaving so late to then get home late and just about eat and fall in to the same routine. I am single and don’t have a family so i cant imagine how difficult it is for working parents. There should be more flexible working options. People will begin to get burnt out and the excitement of work perks of the pantry and a nice office won’t last forever. People want more autonomy in their lives now. You will get more out of your employees if they have a better work life balance.
