Pros

Occasionally you get some cool projects. Many opportunities to stretch skills. Working on automotive software comes with a unique set of challenges that required a new way of thinking. If you like corporate life, this job's for you!

Cons

If you can't stand corporate life, maybe try another job. There is much distrust between the UK and US teams as well as between the Management and staff. I've heard many people express that they feel their work isn't valued. There is way too much duplication of work between the UK and US that is a result of poor communication and lack of trust. Management and upper management are all white and male. It's a tech job so women if you apply, know you will have to fight to be taken seriously.

Pros

Great work life balance Supportive environment

Cons

If you fall in the less than 3 years experience bucket, your best shot is the new graduate positions which have terrible pay and full-time employment after 2-years is not guaranteed.
