Pros

There are good benefits - vacation, health, pension etc. The work is Interesting and varied. There are flexible working hours/work from home etc.

Cons

There are constant reorganizations which are not communicated to staff effectively. There is a lack of investment in people which leads to a lack of employee loyalty to company and can lead to bad morale in certain departments.

Pros

Flexible working (easy to WFH), good work/life balance (normal work hours 99% of the time) and supportive managers. In addition, I find if you perform well and are patient you are given responsibilities (such as project lead).

Cons

Only small increases in salary, there does not seem to be much stability in the teams - the team I am working in has had multiple staff moved to various other teams many times this year.
