Political Hell Hole
Pros: Good salary and benefits but you have to sell your soul to receive them. I was working in central London with nice offices and perks.
Cons: Most political place I have ever worked. Almost every project, assessment, email, meeting and comment is calculated for the political advancement of specific individuals rather than to provide the customer a great experience. Its amazing any products get built at all. As soon as anything is even marginally successful everyone wants to claim credit and ultimately this reverts back to some faceless droid in Redmond. If you can work a political system you'll love it.
