Lots of work, great benefits, stable through all of the world economic financial upheavals

With lots of work comes lots of hours. Financial upheaval in the world economy make it difficult to predict where money comes from to perform. Lots of legacy employees who need to move on

Pros

The company culture is good. It's a very friendly relaxed environment and as most people are academics they encourage knowledge sharing. There is no real pressure to meet deadlines and if you are in the right place at the right time, the work can be very interesting.

Cons

The pay for engineers is terrible. Especially given the specialism and amount of knowledge required. Loyalty is not rewarded and they continually hire people with inappropriate backgrounds on 5k more than experienced engineers. It's hard to swallow. The HR department is running the company which is extremely unusual. There used to be a performance related pay review but this is now a flat 2% raise overall which is disgraceful given the company's financials. The lack of PPR means that there is an awful lot of "deadwood" in the company coasting along on other peoples work.
