      Pros

      Brilliant people, good opportunity to learn new tech. Always so busy dealing with new and interesting tasks. Working from home is handy and flexible hours helps when work loads allow it.

      Cons

      Always so busy, fighting fires with legacy products - the traffic in Guildford is shocking. Work life balance can sometimes be sacrificed - but working from home is an option if your project allows it.

      Thank you very much for your review. It’s great to know you are enjoying your time here and feel there are opportunities to learn new technology. We are proud of how we have developed our flexible working so this feedback is great to hear! We appreciate how difficult the traffic in the area has become and we are working with the research park and the council to resolve these issues. We are so pleased you feel morale is high and our efforts are paying off. Thanks again!
