Pros

Great free food, nice fish, nice office.

Fairly good company culture as a whole. Summer parties are amazing.

Provides good training. Fairly flexible working hours. Fairly good perks/benefits.

Software terminal is quite cool.

Cons

Ancient technologies and a perpetual urge to reinvent the wheel make it tough to do new creative stuff. London still gets forgotten in various aspects. There's certainly not much career development here. Management has a habit of getting something out of people for nothing; the extra mile is more like the extra league.

Advice to Management

London R&D needs better management. People work too much for too little. Is it a coincidence that it's understaffed? I think not.
