Pros

Good benefits Great people Flexibility in the teams Great uplift programs Good opportunity to work on some amazing projects

Cons

- Lack of flexibility in flexible/hybrid working: The company maintains rigid policy and has refuses to accommodate individual circumstances, make reasonable exceptions, or adjust contracts when needed. - Misleading salary expectations: While the company advertises competitive pay, it often references the upper end of broad and overlapping salary bands (Principal: £65K–£109K; Senior: £54K–£91K), which does not reflect typical compensation offered on the market.
