Pros

The APAC Pre-sales team are awesome to work with. A great team of really smart people with diverse and interesting backgrounds all coming together to add real value in their own way.

Cons

Tough to get consistent clarity and deliver to customers what they need. Short staffed in Services and Delivery and sometimes a Sales Force that lives to divide and conquer in order to hurry up and wait. Its not efficient and causes rifts. The Melbourne Office is OLD, DRAB, TIRED, DIRTY and completely at odds with an environment that you want to get up to every day. It really is sad and in my onion embarrassing to bring clients in to the foyer. NEEDS ATTENTION

Pros

Interesting work with a varied set of clients. Career & personal development isn't confined to industry groups (unlike a Big 4 environment) . There's also a better identity of who BAE SYSTEMS Applied Intelligence is, compared to 5 years ago.

Cons

Seems to be driven by Operations and some of the internal processes appear cumbersome and a burden - could be sleeker in this respect.
