Pros

I started in the Holborn office in London before moving to the new offices at Ludgate and spent nearly 1.5 years at Hitachi Rail. Personally I really enjoyed it as my role changed massively in my time there which was only possible as the company was growing so quickly. I worked in the Sales and Marketing team and the people were great, I loved some of the projects I got to work on and everyone worked as a team - which I loved. My role focused on delivering a new project and I would have been looking forward to new projects after this except for me the travel to the office was really long so I found something similar closer to home. I would definitely recommend working there though - I had a really positive experience.

Cons

Things move really quickly as there was so much to deliver in a short space of time, if you don't thrive in that type of environment you might struggle with the pace of things. Overall I didn't find many negatives with my experience and if the office was in a different location, I would have stayed on with Hitachi.

Pros

Great manager, hybrid work, flexibly if you work hard, good benefits, lots of growth. The culture is fantastic.

Cons

Lot of restructuring, needs a directory of who manages what, titles are vague and don't reflect what you actually do but everyone is super nice.

Pros

People tend to help one another

Cons

Pay is terrible compared to industry standards, no bonus/stock option, and upper management has been micro-managing the department for over a year as of 2025.
