Work colleagues
Worst thing
Everything else - pay is poor, management is poor. Appreciation is poor.

Best thing
Eventhough we are a massive company we work as a team, much like a family. Really look after eachother in every way.
Worst thing
We have a lot of jobs on us. An A4 job spec but probably 6 pages for the jobs expected of us. We are constantly trying to catch up but the colleagues make it worth it.
