      A good company, with too much red tape

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The company in general is well run, flexible and provides good opportunity for advancement

      Cons

      The amount of red tape to jump through in order to get anything done sucks the life and energy out of you. As an employee transfered across in an acquisition, with one of the major factors being speed of deployment, I watched as the red tape was wrapped around the company until all were suffocated of any ingenuity. That said it's a huge company and not disimilar, in that respect, to others that I have worked for.

      Nice enough people for a big corporate, was a good team feel until the axe came, and communication from management was ok compare to other places

      Cons

      Lack of job growth and opportunities. Lack of salary reviews - only 1 a year. Pretty bad project delivery due to disparate IT departments
