Ventajas
* Location can be attractive to many * Facilities in general - the building is part of a relatively new business park, so there's lots of open space, light and greenery * Work-life balance - I think it varies from department to department and person to person, but I've not found the need to take work home and prefer working shifts to 9-5 personally * If your face fits there is opportunities to progress or learn about other roles (though, more often sideways) * Production department has a lot of talented and hard-working people * Meet a lot of people, the general daily vibe is friendly and days can be fun
Desventajas
* Very corporate; lots of middle-management, takes ages for anything to happen. Some of the higher ups have been with the company since early days and are now in high-paid roles without actually having to do much, so they will never leave. And until then, the antiquated slightly nepotistic culture won't either. * Very cliquey; between departments, but also within departments * A lot of blame culture while very little accountability * Unfair job distribution * Impossible targets and in general incredible stinginess with money, whether that's talking about salaries (any excuse to not give you a raise), upgrading equipment, having to pay P&P while ordering from the company, (non-existent) social events etc. * If your face doesn't fit, you will be held to different set of rules and have no chance for progression * Systems are incredibly out-dated and often QVC-specific software that takes ages to learn, but isn't transferable * 'Fix a bleed with a band-aid' mentality
