Pros

- Opportunity to move roles within organisation - A lot of good people that are willing to help and go the extra mile

Cons

- Grossly outdated corporate culture - Complete arrogance to change, JCB way or no way - Senior leadership team thrives off obnoxious techniques and use fear to speed up/attempt to get things done - Completely rigid working (Fixed holidays, fixed hours, no flexi time). There is however an expectation for employees to be totally flexible and all travel is carried out at weekends with no compensation or time back - Projects are run on a fraction of the resource required but expected to be delivered in a fraction of the time - Climate and environment targets are laughable - private jets and helicopters are used daily there
