Pros
A great place to work in Belfast with an amazing group of knowledgeable people. A diverse and inclusive place to expand your professional network with lots of senior staff who started at reputable and established IT companies in Belfast. Everyone is really genuine and friendly with no agenda or toxicity whatsoever. NI culture is great with flexible hybrid working and even free snacks for breakfast and lunch when working in the office. Quarterly socials are fun and you can choose to be involved in the ERGs (Employee Resource Groups) or locally with charity activities like volunteering or fundraising.
Cons
The company feels like a startup because the Belfast office has been set up as a centre of excellence within the business to deliver IT Strategy solutions globally. So there’s obvious teething issues that you would expect with policies, processes, etc. This is perfectly fine and probably desirable if you are at a more senior level because you will have the foundation necessary to go in and really make an impact to shape those things. But junior staff will need to be very gritty and proactive here. This is not always ideal for those who like processes and structure at any level and is sometimes a difficult learning environment.
