Pros

Great environment to work in. Fantastic people. Depending on the department one's in, the work can be interesting and challenging. The review system in place is fair and provides a good picture of how people perceive you and how to improve as an individual. Benefits like free lunches, flexible working hours are just icing on the cake.

Cons

Decisions made by the upper management may not be transparent enough. Sometimes engineers are left in the dark about decisions which could affect them. Engineering roles in London are limited at present. Most of the roles are not very exciting and may make it difficult to progress career wise.

Pros

Very relaxed atmosphere. Lots of talented people working here. Freedom to work on side projects when not busy.

Cons

Hard to distinguish yourself as being a good engineer. A lot of the day to day work is quite dull. Not very challenging most of the time. Typically promotions go to people when they have been here a certain amount of time or are more pushy about getting them, rather than going to those who deserve them more.
