Dreadful company. A sluggish behemoth, reluctant to change, (public sector-esque). Inefficient and overrated.

Business Outlook

Pros

Offices world wide. Some of the most interesting projects are awarded to Motts. Little expectations from the company. Almost impossible to get fired.

Cons

Little or no innovation. Company values are just a tag line. Career prospects limited unless you are hired at grade E or above. Basic no frills remuneration. Non transparent promotion and career progression policy. Rewarded for years served rather than ability or talent.
