Fantastic place to work

Pros

The company is growing fast and winning market share which enables a creative and empowering culture. The board are passionate about the company and are not the career board members that move from one company and industry to another with ease. Large investment in new services and market leading innovation.

Cons

Fringe benefits could be better, leave, private healthcare, pension etc but the pay typically compensates for this (that might be true for everyone of course)

Pros

Workmates are great. Easy to have long lunches. Nobody capable of bothering you because no-one understands what you do anyway. In total, quite an easy, laid back life

Cons

Pay is poor and no chance of pay rises. Even when/if you are promoted to say, senior engineer or team leader it is all done in a "hush hush" way, you don't get an increase in your basic, but a "daily allowance" of around £2 a day when you are in work. Of course you don't get it whilst on holiday. There are so many levels of management that you will never know who your manager is - there's resource managers, local managers, district managers, area managers, regional managers, senior managers, T2 managers. They mostly sit in an office somewhere, doing something or other and never bother you. None of the managers is in the slightest bit technical which, for an IT company is anomalous.
