Pros

The teamwork is good - however this is not due to management

Cons

Underpaid, pressure from managers who don’t know what they are doing themselves, made to take advantage of customers

Pros

- Some nice benefits - Experience - Smart people, however underpaid - Nice location with a rooftop terrace

Cons

- Recent adoption of the SAFE Agile methodology has left the company in chaos - Outdated platform with lots of legacy code that nobody seems to be in any rush to update. - Outdated procedures for almost everything - Very limited opportunity for career growth - Management spends all their time fixing problems that don't exist instead of focusing on the real issues. - Outdated hardware - Far below-average pay - No room for improvement

Pros

The majority of entry/mid level staff are a good bunch of genuine people and The Castle pub over the road does a decent beer!

Cons

Poor staff discount, awful head office location in the middle of nowhere (you have to enjoy eating Subway and Tesco meal deals every day), culture of management withholding information, poor toilets/gym/showers (6 showers for the entire workforce?)... the list could go on..
