Pros

Everything that is being done for the safety of staff in this COVID-19 situation "PRESUMABLY".

Cons

Starting every meeting with Health and Safety topic, organizing multiple courses on safety and welfare of staff, acting integrally, none of these are seen in action in the current situation. The company has not been able to stand on its own core values in these testing times rather, expects staff to be resilient and focus on business. Every attempt is made to dodge government guidelines with silly loopholes to get staff in office premises compromising on their safety. Is this how company puts safety at the core of everything it does?

Pros

Some good engineers and decent projects. In London there are big projects that incorporate victorian era infrastructure with new build. This can be fun and challenging.

Cons

Far too many managers and an opaque management system. At times it feels like managers and engineers operate with completely different priorities. There is a big push for engineering to be done "offshore", where labour is much cheaper.
