Pros

Fantastic colleagues - talented, supportive, friendly, helpful Really interesting projects Employee-ownership, which drives positive values, including pride in the quality of our work Good salary and benefits The Leeds office is a fabulous space in which to work

Cons

The firm has lost its way a little. Some questionable senior promotion decisions, and emergence of a mutually back slapping leadership clique that believe their own publicity.
