Pros
  1. The company is doing fine.

  2. Salary and benefits are good.

  3. The new office in London is great.

  4. The technical people are good.

Cons

The company is going through a move to the US in the engineering department so not great time for UK staff. The infrastructure has grown complex and it's not always organic. Teams are sometimes too compartmentalized with too specific functions and not much collaboration.

There are way too many levels of management and too many meetings. There are lots of big projects decided from higher-ups and forced or unrealistic deadlines.

Advice to Management

The feeling is that sometimes big decisions are taken on someone's whim and managers are just a chain of "yes" men.

A flatter structure and a better view of the company goals would help everyone.
