Pros

Managers tend to be quite flexible with worklife balance, and people are genuinely friendly and face time is not a big deal here. Good brand name to work for, and plenty of opportunities to move internally.

Cons

Getting a promotion is like finding magical gold dust! You can give them blood, sweat and even tears, but at the end of the day the person who has been sat in their seat longest will be the one to get promoted, even if they are completely incapable of actually doing their job! Their is a strict hierarchy and don't expect to move between the levels in the same team. Internal training and courses are very poor, and few and far between.

Pros

If you want a 9-to-5 job with decent pay, this is as good a place as any.

Cons

If you take pride in your work and are used to having a degree of autonomy, you will be frustrated. You will be milked for original ideas but have no control over what happens with them. You will not receive credit.
