Pros

Very likeable people with lots of knowledge and prepared to share it. Options to change what you are working on should you want it. The projects available are varied and usually challenging, with interesting people working on the teams. Always possible to talk to your manager. Accepting of suggestions. The office feels like a good place most of the time. A couple of options for relaxing on the job, especially when you feel stuck (billiards, Wii U, darts etc.)

Cons

Fair amount of mistrust from the other offices. Most of the time there is a feeling of competition, cooperation can be done, but tends to be a chore. Secrets kept about things that should be open. It is suggested you keep your pay and benefit arrangement to yourself, transparency can be very lacking at times. Some people tend to force their views on you (especially ones that are up the chain), but most of the issues can be resolved.

Pros

Very flexible with scheduling. Nice bonus job that you can do after work. Not too difficult and if you’re already watching the game you might as well be getting paid for it. Supervisors and management are great and schedule very well.

Cons

Hard to get a lot of hours after the month of November. Guaranteed to work at least part of a Saturday almost every week.

Pros

There are some very smart, very strong team members. However, those individuals are leaving in droves.

Cons

The executive leadership team, especially Carsten have lost their way. Increasing demands on staff, while cutting team staffing across all functions, forcing 5 days in office without thinking through a plan and how it will effect families, and lack of raises the last few years has created a very stressed and overworked culture. This company has fully shifted into an "appease the shareholders" phase of cost cutting, do more with less phase which is having a large effect on the quality of talent. There is a constant shift of senior leadership with changing priorities when the actual fix to most problems are to just add low level staff to do work. This place is overrun with Sr leaders demanding KPI/KRI updates, sitting in meetings, and not much time spent doing actual work.
