Business outlook
Pros
Lots of friendly staff, nice office in good City location, self directed work, wasn’t micro managed. Good opportunities to develop project management skills with excellent support from a dedicated project monitoring member of staff
Cons
Huge distrust of staff with to-the-minute clockwatching. Quite a secretive culture amongst senior management and felt patronised several times. Funded by Shell and BAE systems. Zero acknowledgement of barriers to certain groups progressing within engineering sector such as adequate parental leave/carers leave and pay. Also v little emphasis on soft skills needed for engineering careers. I did leave a good while ago though so these things could of course changed.
