Pros

- Friendly office - New products and features keep things fresh - Car Park

Cons

- Rapid change to code being written by AI agents so hands on development is now a thing of the past - we are now AI applied Engineers. - Last few years has seen redundancies every year. - Staff moral feels low. - Company used to be people centric and were all about the culture but they don't seem to care about their staff so much anymore and more about chasing the next dollar.

Pros

One of the best jobs I've ever had. Unfortunately my role got cut due to layoffs but I would have stayed here for years if that weren't the case. Great autonomy to employees, great collaboration, communication and organization. Good leadership.

Cons

Unexpected rounds of layoffs, but it was the case in tech for a while.
