Pros

- Comparitively good salary for a public sector company. - Good staff benefits package. - Creative freedom to do what we feel is best. - Friendly co-workers.

Cons

- Hands tied by bureacracy. - Severely outdated computer software/hardware, with seemingly no intention to upgrade. - Management are too focused on "quick wins", which reduces quality of work output. - Non-technical management staff for technical teams makes interaction difficult at times. - Little adherence to established practices and standards. - Engrained anti-progress culture when it requires adaptation.
