A Great Company, especially to begin your career
Pros: This is a great company to begin your career in tech, or any other sector of the firm. You get out of it what you put in.

- Vast Resources, trainings and certifications all provided.
- Great people to work with at all levels of the firm.
- Pay is very competitive, plus health and dental options.
- Flexible working conditions, Flexi-time, supportive of families, remote working infrastructure is world-leading.
Cons: - Still a high amount of bureaucracy, makes it hard to innovate.
- Not a clear path for lateral moves, promotions can be vague too.
- Unpaid overtime, a lot of weekends worked too in order to support deployments/maintenance. 
- Can be up to luck how good your manager is, some are brilliant others are just doing it for the CV.
- People who don't see or work with you on a daily basis decide your salary, no room for negotiation.
- A lot of office politics, the highly Americanised corporate culture may not click well with some British workers.
