Pros

Dynamic working can structure your week how you want it Alright pay for an engineering job

Cons

Defence company so everything is slow and tedious The tools which they give you are antiquated and deprecated the majority of the time. Feels like the company is stuck in 2008. They say this is because of it being defence though other defence companies have the better equipment and tools? Overall environment in my division is extremely insular not many ideas being discussed you will likely be spending your time debugging a piece of code somebody made 30 years ago with no documentation
