Pros
9-5 culture means work life balance can be good. Benefits are better than most companies. Company mantra of looking after workers means treatment of employees is generally good. Nice greenspace and ornamental pool outside the cafeteria. Easy to drive to.
Cons
Committee-based corporate culture is very bad at effective decision-making. 9-5 culture means more emphasis on being seen to do work than actually achieving anything. HQ building is depressingly in need of renovation and on-site facilities are quite antiquated. HQ is isolated - need to drive if you want to eat anywhere other than the cafeteria, which has very average food.
