Pros

Good salary and bonus Access to a lot of training modules online Interesting technology Surrounded by super clever people Very international community Modern campus with a lake You can never run out of great coffee as there is a café in each of the 6 buildings Possibility of working at the Paddington office in the future Good work life balance as possibility to work from home a couple of days a week

Cons

Political alliance can make or break you If you are not part of the "in-crowd", you can be at risk at the end of the financial year (March): there is a redundancy programme every year The catering company offers mediocre food at extortionate prices Newbury is in the middle of nowhere, not conducive to socialising after work

Politics all over the organisation, behaviors are poor and non focused, decision architecture is none existent and leadership is very poor.
