Poor development, big issue with a lack of trust, unwilling to invest in employees

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunities for moving between departments. Travel opportunities. Equal opportunities in UK. Generally employees are conscientious (few abrasive characters). Stability.

Cons

Highly dependent on who your manager as to your progression. Don't seem particularly flexible/trusting when it comes to travel and working arrangements. Unprofessional behaviour by some in HR. Business, engineering and operations are disconnected. No bonuses. Disheartened employees.
