Pros

Decent trainings and on-boarding , great food & snacks, positive overall company culture

Cons

The UK SE management team are experts in killing talents and disregarding industry experience. Every SE manager has been given a quota to hire and promote certain number of women and young people and they are so single minded that they completely brush aside some of their top talents . Their strategic & top SEs are the most unsung heroes and instead everyone keep singing the praise of the grads which is such a short sighted view and in a long run they are going to lose their top performers .

Pros

The Culture in SLDC sounds amazing in theory. The pay is not bad Some of the most amazing colleagues I remember working with Offices centrally located

Cons

The real culture of a company, as opposed to flamboyant written statements and persistent brainwashing operations, can be judged by who stays and who leaves a company. Speedy unplanned growth will dilute any corporate culture, by the time you stop to assess the damage you realise all the good people left.
