Pros: Positive working atmosphere - people help each other out, no prima donnas Smart colleagues - the standard overall is by some way the best I've ever had in a workplace. It's a great place to learn Sensible work/life balance - the emphasis is on sustainable work, no-one is expecting any death marches I find the day-to-day work interesting and challenging - we are trying to get and stay ahead of others in our sector, so things don't stay still for long It is a great location. It's growing, so there are opportunities for those who might want to end up managing others Solid business model - I think the company is very well placed for the short/medium term (which is as far ahead as I care to predict) It has decent pay. Reasonable selection of soft drinks, although I am still not sure whether Diet Lilt should have made the cut

Cons: Security concerns mean home working is off the menu. Not a problem for many, but a major drawback for me It's growing, so it's not as small as it was - not a problem for me, but some might prefer a sub-100-employee type setup

Pros: Good people, friendly, welcoming environment. Interesting problems to solve, plenty of freedom to fix things you find that are broken.

Cons: Messy environment, lots of technical debt (but a willingness to clean things up, and this is improving).

Pros: Interesting tech stack, some bright people to work alongside

Cons: The company has laid off 10% of the workforce two years in a row, including some well liked and respected long timers, while cutting most of the morale and events budget, so morale is terrible.
