Pros

• Very smart people to work with and learn from. • Free snacks and exhibition tickets. • Sponsor masters courses (performance dependent).

Cons

The management treats people like crap. Progress within the company depends on talking the talk rather than walking the walk. Very long hours; you will be called at funny hours to come and fix a Fortran bug. The tools are shocking. Deadwood managers who've been in the company since day one will do absolutely anything to safeguard their position, as they know they're not employable anywhere else.

Advice to Management

Leave.
