Pros

A family friendly company with great training and a collaborative / supportive culture. Plenty of career progression opportunity and ability to stay up to the minute in a skill area

Cons

Quite bureaucratic and slow moving which can be frustrating along with a committee attitude to decision making. Not an exciting or fast moving environment
