Pros

Costa on site, best conversation. Good place to get training on how to be two-faced.

Cons

You can be intelligent and efficient - but not too much. You're colleagues and managers are all about self preservation. If they say 1+1 = 5 ...then just say "5" ...keep the peace. But if you have an ounce of self-respect you'd tell them straight. Local Staff have college diplomas at best, whilst the off-shore guys have MBAs and tech certificates. Treated as 2nd class citizens. Are we back to Victorian times ?

Pros

Great offices and love the agile working concept Easy to gain experience in areas that interest you Lots of experts with fantastic knowledge

Cons

Too many meetings about meetings. Lack of clear decisive decision making - and feedback culture means those lower down are scared to make decisions The most simple things are made overly complicated Everyone expected to be strategic but its down to those at the bottom of the chain to decide what the strategy means and what to do about it.

Pros

Great benefits, flexibility, people, and salary.

Cons

No growth unless department change, and work load is low to my preference.
