Pros

The people here are really engaged, helpful, and good at their jobs.

The culture here is really people-focused, which makes it a really nice place to work.

The benefits are second to none and attract the best talent.

The engineering practices are advanced and always forward-looking.

Cons

The engineering estate has legacy parts, like all big businesses over a certain age. The attitude towards evolving these systems is generally good but lacks urgency and speed of change at times. As it is a larger organization, it can be tricky at times to effect change, especially in an environment of strong opinions.

Advice to Management

A focus on organization and making ruthless decisions around legacy technology, which will affect profits in the short term for longer-term gains.
