Pros

Flexible working patterns are in place which are beneficial but purely to suit the local site and contracts in place. Decent salary on offer, but over-shadowed by many of the cons.

Cons

Top- heavy management team, could do with restructuring and more experience. Inconsistency across management decisions particularly regarding HR policies such as authorising comp leave etc. No clear direction from management. Face-fits and jobs for the boys culture. Difficult to balance work/life. High expectations for little reward. Unprofessional and to an extent unethical working practices. Low morale within workers. Unfair and very biased employee recognition and rewards scheme.

Pros

Great work culture. Good focus on ethics and ethical behaviour throughout the company. Company offers 9/75 working pattern which allows every second Friday off.

Cons

Career development opportunities are not as frequent as in the US. The Business unit removed flexibility to work from home. The business unit leadership team is inexperienced who focus entirely in the weeds.

Pros

Relaxed environment with opportunities to mix with very senior employees and gain an insight into how the company works. Work life balance is good with many business areas now operating '9/75' which means working an extra hour each day in order to get every second Friday off.

Cons

Few opportunities to get promoted internally unless you are willing to relocate. Many employees are ex military so hierarchy is key.
