Pros

-The people: I’ve met and worked with some amazing people at this company that made day to day life much less of a chore. -The technology: It’s amazing having the opportunity to work hands on with top level motorsport products. -The pay: Well paid compared to competitors in the industry.

Cons

-Lack of development: Holy mother of pigeonholing. An attitude of “Yearn to learn” is banally promoted by the company, unfortunately they fail to teach. Even when literally begging for opportunities to learn, up-skill, and advance, you end up getting strung along and having your time wasted. -Work flow: Constant and frustrating lack of work at the start of the month, which leads to a very heavily loaded end of month rush where overtime is expected and completely unnecessary stress is added. -Blame culture: Where issues arise, people seem more interested in finding someone to blame and absolving themselves, rather than focusing on a solution.

Pros

Great technology, and position in the marketplace. Some jolly good people. Good tools in place.

Cons

Management eejits and continued poor decision making. Always under the cosh to deliver. Constant short term focus and slagging off on others who are not considered integral to the company. Ignores data and sheds good chaps at an alarming rate.
