I work from home once a fortnight and they are flexible with if you need to leave early or take a longer lunch hour etc. The people are all really welcoming and helpful as well. The managers I have had are very encouraging and supportive in regards to helping with career development.

  • The work environment is extremely friendly.

Cons

    • Out-dated systems and processes.
