Pros

Good Benefits (Insurance, Free Lunch) Good Hours (Ability to start within a given time range and leave withing a given time range)

Cons

Lack of Career Growth Monotonous work Constantly changing technology that are never used. Spend weeks working to implement new technology and structure only for the structure to change when the work is completed. Changing technologies are almost impossible as some systems are decades old and have dependencies that seem like they will never be changed Projects are given without scoping out possibilities and dependencies. Decisions are made from the top level without an understanding of what is actually possible. Made based on what management think will work Very little communication between Data and R&D side both which have completely different understanding of systems and time allocated. Makes joint projects very difficult especially when Data pushes one thing which R&D says is impossible

Pros

Great Office, Free Snacks and plenty of social events

Cons

Be prepared for a heavily politicised culture — it's pervasive and affects day-to-day working life significantly. The organisation suffers from clear in-group favouritism at the leadership level, where certain groups are visibly preferred for opportunities, recognition, and advancement. This creates an uneven playing field and quietly damages morale for those outside those circles. Leadership collaboration leaves a lot to be desired. In four years, I didn't experience a single structured team-building or bonding initiative — a telling sign of how little investment goes into people and team cohesion. Perhaps most concerning is the approach to compliance. Raising legitimate concerns or challenging existing practices is met with significant resistance from senior stakeholders, rather than genuine engagement. A culture where pushback replaces accountability is one worth approaching with caution.
