Pros

Pay is reasonable and the products are pretty good. Some very capable people below the senior managers.

Cons

Terribly organised, too much infighting, lack of leadership both in the UK and EMEA, go to market strategy is confusing, the 'Digital Enterprise" play is already out dated. Recruiters talk about their revolving door and I have seen lots of good people leave over the past year.
