Pros

Salary used to be a significant selling point; now, the stress is not worth it! Still good people around that care, but they are getting fewer every couple of months.

Cons

The Management of course! A real Cult of Personality - there are new managers every couple of months, Americans with no plan unless running people into the ground to make them leave on their own is a plan — a SAFe transformation, which is slowly killing the ability to get anything done. Too many people in a small office (yes London) soo much noise and constant issues with crappy desktop, using Windows 7 is a joke. Using an MS office product that is ten years old, please sort this out! Every couple of weeks, another primary system goes down, if not the whole Data Center. This is not a modern company to work for in any shape or form.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
