      Great place to work

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great work life balance, really friendly culture across the whole campus and schools, good investment in student experiences and delivery of education which is reflected in NSS. Strategy for researchers is really good but more could be done to support underfunded and under represented research areas and provide forums to help people step into research confidently

      Cons

      Currently in a financial crisis so taking cost cutting measures, not the only uni in the sector to be doing this, also the cost of coffee on campus is a bit steep but they have a greggs so not really a complaint more of an observation
