Similar to the pain of having a flock of Woodpeckers pecking your eyeball for 7.5h straight. No exaggeration. - Systems Developer Heywood Employee Review

Pros

- The business analysts are, for the most part, fantastic people and co-workers. Full of knowledge on the product, open to learning and sharing knowledge.

Cons

- Lack of flexible working hours - Terrible work review structure - For a self-proclaimed "Agile Tech" company they are unfortunately stuck with values that belong in a completely different business structure and century. Doomed to failure. To end with the worst (and due to the love for gossip, I know this will be mentioned in many of the productive "team meetings"): - Awful working atmosphere (with the obvious exception of a colleague - and as mentioned above, direct interaction with BAs and POs), a blame culture that will just never change since the main propellers of such culture are, apparently, "unfire-able" (as I've been told). So if you'd like to go through a few months/years of hating every minute of your day, from the moment you step in the office, please do become a Developer in Aquilaheywood.
