Pros

Strong training and standards. Some excellent roles with significant exposure. Various social activities. Flexi-time in operation. An enjoyable environment to work in. Good facilities.

Cons

Uncompetitive salaries. An 'old boys' culture exists in parts. Slow decision making (pay / grade rises) although no different from any other blue chip in this respect.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits.

Cons

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
