Hi and thank you for taking the time to write a review. We're definitely pleased that you rate the culture at work and are getting involved in great projects, it's definitely something we hope everyone can agree on. Noted the comments about the salary. We do work to keep abreast of the market, with both an annual review as well as ad-hoc checks as the market changes. This is done for both salary and benefits with the hope that we hit the right combination of work-life balance, career-enhancing projects and remuneration. Thanks again and all the best

Good evening and thanks for leaving a review. We agree - our colleagues are great to work with, and long may that continue! We do work with external experts to get an annual review of market salaries, as well as ad-hoc investigations into particular locations or disciplines as the market fluctuates, but if there's a specific niche you feel we've missed, please do get in touch with me or the reward team. All the best
