Pros

Some of the amazing staff on the teams

Cons

They will work hard to get some of the best talent but then it goes all wrong. Whilst they believe they focus on culture the reality is their work culture policy just exists on paper. I witnessed almost daily humiliation of good staff. The team would rally around each other to support whoevers turn it was that particular day. Senior management have formed an impermeable clique and it was impossible to reason or make an argument for a different view. You're seen as the problem if you try. UK employment legislation and worker rights were seen as a challenge or openly ignored. I've seen able employees suddenly put on improvement plans, contrary to process, without warning. Here's the trick, suddenly an individual will be moved off the account for a perceived reason and benched. No available roles so then they're gone. This appears to be the normal route to dismiss employees without the fuss of formal process. Working there was exhausting. A shame because they obtained, and would regularly lose, amazing staff.

Pros

I've had a positive experience working here as a Lead Engineer. The company provides great opportunities for growth, promotes collaboration, and encourages innovation. Supportive leadership, talented teammates, and meaningful projects make it a great place to build a career and make an impact.

Cons

Can improve decision-making and reduce cross-team dependencies that sometimes slow us down. As business needs change, staying flexible is key, despite the challenges, we enjoy great learning opportunities, supportive colleagues, and the chance to explore and work on great projects.

Pros

UST gave me good opportunities to learn and grow in my career. I got opportunities to work on challenging projects and improve my technical skills. The company recognized my work and gave me chances to take more responsibilities. I got global exposure and the opportunity to work in the USA through UST. I worked with talented people from different teams and learned a lot from them. UST has a good learning culture and encourages employees to improve their skills. The company provides opportunities to work with new technologies and global clients. I feel proud to be part of an organization that is growing and making an impact.

Cons

As a global organization, there are always opportunities to further improve communication and alignment across teams. Some projects can be challenging due to timelines and changing business needs. Continuous improvement in career development opportunities can further enhance the employee experience.
