Pros

It's a great brand to put on your resume. Coworkers are fantastic people.

Cons

NO COMMUNICATION. Everything is secret. Managers are imbeciles. No chance at promotion if you are American.

Thank you for your feedback about what you liked and did not like about Dyson. You are spot on that open and upfront communication is important. And it is an area that we are always trying to improve. So here is some of our progress: 1. Regular town hall style meetings - which openly talk about our performance and our internal goals. 2. Each department meets weekly to discuss issues, open projects and planning. 3. We also recognize that communication is improved when the teams interact outside of the office, so this year we have enjoyed more downtime outside work. You also made a point about empowering managers. As part of developing our leadership we are investing in a training program called Leading Leaders. The intent is to ensure that we are creating the right space for our teams to be creative, be accountable and take responsibility. Thank you again for your feedback. We will continue to challenge ourselves to improve. Best wishes for your future endeavors.

Interesting, frantic and a little chaotic

Pros

Products can be interesting and the ability for the company to shift direction can mean everyone is kept on their toes. Quite a lot of clever, fun people. Most people finish work at a decent time and this is generally respected.

Cons

The office and general facilities are at near breaking point in terms of capacity. Progress to improve this is on its way but slow. If you're young and want to live in a city, the commute (cost / time) takes the enjoyment out of working there quite quickly. Bonus offering is relatively meager.
