Pros

Flexible working hours Opportunity to work cross-functionally on projects Opportunity to work globally

Cons

Incompetent middle management Appalling support for employees (HR, OT, benefits system instead of higher pay and pension contributions) Lots of unnecessary governance and committees leading to slow development Slow progress in non-scientific respects Presentee-ism culture leads to poor work/life balance Disparate team across sites, no sense of centre or belonging

Pros

An exciting scientific atmosphere coupled with good work life balance. There is a current focus on individual development and plenty of opportunities for secondments.

Cons

If you're joining as a new Grad or PhD there are already a lot of talented people in the organisation looking for promotion. Hence promotion could be slower than you expect. There is a gradual trend in outsourcing jobs to Asia, with some functions now at a minimum number of UK roles
