Pros

Some really great colleagues.

Interesting work.

Unique technical challenges and history.

Hursley is a beautiful site, and there's a lot of modernization happening.

Cons

Too much dead-weight, especially at lower management levels.

Different areas compete with each other.

More people reporting to you means more power, which is seen as always good.

Low salaries compared to other tech companies; push for a higher starting offer.

Advice to Management

Stop laying off people randomly and actually find out which people are contributing.
