Pros

Great company culture and caring management.

Cons

Everything is activity-based open plan working, which means having to hunt down desks to work at. It means team-building is quite diffuse and difficult.

Pros

A lot of nice people and great books to work with.

Cons

Very antiquated systems. Sales teams and a lot of teams are in bubbles. There are a good amount of managers and higher ups that have been there for a while (10-30 years) and they don't like change, make their teams life hell, and keep them more siloed.
