Great job, great company, but not perfect

Pros

A lot of bright people working with you or near you, agile is growing in the company, good work environment, nice desks, there is the pantry, which is really nice, view to St Pauls, nice perks, many courses to learn new things, in most teams a relaxed environment, you work for someone much better than Trump.

Cons

Not a good place to cause an impact. Few opportunities to do that there. There is some micro management, not as bad as in many other places I worked, but it's at least "mili-management", they don't monitor what you're doing all the time but many decisions about products come top-down without anyone asking your opinion. Also, there is little proximity between R&D and business areas, I think only high management has a good vision of how the company is placed in the market. Career progression is many times political decision, not tied at all to results. I see many people in management areas who are really good, but others that you really ask your self - why? What's that person doing as a manager? How did that happen?
