Pros

Set in an extremely pleasant campus environment, with excellent canteen facilities, a pleasurable environment which belies the serious nature of the work. Many of the core staff are pretty much lifetime employees, with an ingrained loyalty to the business. which results in considerable expertise but a resentment of incoming talent (see below)

Cons

As referred to above, there is a great deal of resentment of incoming talent, and a reluctance to both work with international partners and to think outside the box. The location (Stevenage) is fairly remote and offers little opportunity for extra curricular social networking

Pros

Great work, interesting industry, enjoyable working environment with very good people who are genuinely driven. Good support to personal development through active schemes, training and mentors.

Cons

Relatively poor salary and progression and feels like it is somewhat behind what other modern organisations are doing in terms of workplace flexibility, incentives, etc.
