    Not the best experience unfortunately
    The good thingsThe actual team you work alongside with.
    The challengesSeverely under paid. Not equal pay in comparison to other staff in the same role/title, experienced or not, despite efforts, mental health/ family/personal sacrifices, they pick and choose what they're willing to pay you and no thanks to your efforts after moving on. Used to brag about what a good company I worked for, unfortunately I had been deceived.

    There is no room for growth, you are expected to far more than you should and often have to work days on your own with no other staff or a receptionist to rely on
    The good thingsI would only recommend this place if an individual desperately needed an income and had no other choice
    The challengesPoor Management, insufficient/reliable staff, different working hours for everyday, often got stuck working later than expected
