Pros

- Great colleagues. Lots of knowledgeable people here and real experts. - Ratio of nice-people-who-actually-know-what-their-doing over lazy-bums-and-know-it-all's is high. -> this is actually really great compared to other companies. - Balanced work load. (meaning, sometimes you have to work a lot, sometimes you slack a lot) - Overseas trip opportunity for the lucky teams. - Job security is pretty good... for the permanent employees. - Company is pretty huge and known in Europe. - Maybe a good starting point for new bloods - Great place to learn old tools.... OLD Tools. - We all want higher salaries but we are not underpaid, maybe just below industry average. (pro for me, you decide) - Some people think the policies are strict and unreasonable but they probably haven't seen worse. Its quite laid-back. - The building is nice and big and carpeted - Perfect for the mundane and the content

Cons

- Very late to adapt to new technologies - Process can be improved. A lot of redundancy. (almost archaic) - Some teams are lucky some aren't. - Very late to adapt to new technologies. This deserves another mention. - You need to know how to motivate yourself and give yourself something to look forward to. - Young employees might want more than the company has to offer. If you want action packed software, you'll probably be disappointed. - No we don't develop self driving cars. - No our technology is not advanced. See previous comments. - Food is far. - The toilets are horrible.

Pros

Great work life balance and culture. If you want to work at a place that will provide a low stress, flexible position with amazing people, this place is no doubt one of the best in that area.

Cons

Pay is low compared to other companies in the area and the cost of living in the area is high. They seem to be outsourcing jobs to cut costs, so job security is not the best right now.
