Pros

- Great colleagues - Superb site in Cambridge - Interesting technology

Cons

- Lack of institutional will to be at cutting edge of technology --- always trying to follow along cheaper. The trouble is, that's much harder than running a proper tick-tock cycle and getting your budget offerings almost "for free". - Poor senior management; confused and unstable strategy seemed mostly focussed on massaging the balance sheet. - Questionable future under new owners.

Pros

You get to work in an Agile SCRUM environment while developing software for their large scale products gaining insight into their large C, C++ code on data packet handling and Internet Protocols. The work place is relaxed and plenty of help available if you get stuck at any point.

Cons

Gets boring when you are doing and dealing with the same thing.
