Pros

there are some benefits to working with this company, one is it pays well. they offer a descent benefits package.

Cons

Very hot conditions. It can be unsafe if a worker has a medical condition. I have type 1 diabetes, giving concern for blood sugar dropping in dangerous situations.

Pros

Very interesting technology. UK company with genuine global reach and therefore opportunities to travel and work with other cultures. A respected company and the name on your CV is attractive. The Applied Intelligence business is a very interesting part of the company.

Cons

Very mixed quality of talent. Some excellent people but also a veritable forest of dead wood. Progression can be hard without patronage; it isn't necessarily a meritocracy. UK business has a shaky future.
