Pros

Great place to learn skills Friendly people Technical leaders

Cons

Poor management, both in terms of strategic judgements and caring for staff Stressful at times. Timescales set top down by management with no buy in from those who implement the work. Obsessed with keeping low headcount in spite of great finances and a mass of work to do. Compensation not as good as it used to be.

Pros

Good amount of downtime. Company car. Decent benefits. Fairly autonomous (depending on manager). Great troubleshooting experience.

Cons

Management can be overbearing. After being bought by Siemens, the company no longer values patient treatment over profit. Work life balance is seriously lacking. You may have downtime but you can’t plan anything during the week due to being on-call. Overtime is now heavily monitored, where it used to be a big selling point. Seeing as the hourly pay is relatively low compared to the job responsibilities.
