Pros

Work from home and good coffe.

Cons

Not a great fit for those who value autonomy. While Smartdesc may offer some opportunities, the work environment felt restrictive due to close managerial oversight and a focus on detailed time tracking. Feedback also seemed to flow indirectly through colleagues, which could lead to confusion. Those seeking a more independent and collaborative work style may want to consider other options.

Pros

Good team of engineers. Salary not too bad. Loads of different tech platforms to gain knowledge Perks aren't the worst Get Bday off

Cons

Told when to go to lunch 15 min toilet break in morning and afternoon If client tells them to jump you need to figure out how high Management tell you one thing then when the time comes it changes to something completely different. Get in "trouble" if not onsite on time Staff leave org (sometimes during the workday) but not told why Rota changed for no reason, told client wanted the change but when speaking to the client realise it was management.
