Pros

Beautiful modern offices Free tea and coffee Some very proffesional and knowledge staff.

Cons

Quality of upper management is questionable. Senior managment place too much emphais on the 'pub' and not enough on project deliverables. If you enjoy the pub culture this is a good place for you to work. If you don't enjoy it you won't fit in. Many staff feel the management are just there for the salary and this is quite demoralising. It's become a very difficult and political place to work Not enough decision making Back stabbing culture Constant layoffs Staff always complain about being bored, and working on the same or similar projects - ground hog day Noticeable lack of ethnic diversity in the office!

Pros

Good benefits and learning and tools being made available to employees. Location allows easy access to gym and food places.

Cons

Full of old-timers and some of them hardly do any work; double standard in the promotion ranks across departments meaning that some people can just skip ranks because they know the right people.
