Pros

There are many varied opportunities for engineers are available for internal candidates. Management are, in general, approachable and willing to listen.

Cons

The company is still experiencing growing pains, as they transition from a niche manufacturer of off road vehicles to a higher volume, main segment player.

Pros

Great team and a capable and driven manager. A good commonised programme delivery structure that everyone understands and buys into. Great benefits, car scheme at LL6 grade is fantastic. Excellent working environment. Parking and traffic much improved and really not a huge issue. Good equipment; many just got new lightweight laptops, most have iPhones. Common dell docking stations on every desk with dual monitors. Fantastic cars which are genuinely a privilege to be a part of.

Cons

Quite a few shirkers, so a lot of time wasted chasing. You know all who you are; you're the one who never logs into your phone, haven't added your mobile number to the company directory, never answers emails, never attends meetings and have set your diary to automatically refuse meetings. Hot desking is a dream as you're never in the same place twice. But I *will* find you. Over reliance on escalation to get things done. Departments still quite siloed; I recently facilitated a meeting between two people...who sit next to each other....! Over reliance on email to the detriment of productivity, and a diary with each hour 3 deep on meeting invites; takes a while to understand what's important and sometimes you get it wrong. Getting things done often difficult as processes not there/published/understood/changed so a lot of networking to find out how to proceed and often failing at the last hurdle because it's the wrong form/person/day of the month (really). Googlemail repugnant to an outlook user but can be configured to be a bit more normal with effort.
