Pros

• Excellent promotion opportunities due to demographic bubble now retiring. • Good pension (but not as good as it used to be). • World class technical projects. • Good modern workplaces • Strong culture of inclusion • Great training

Cons

• Team leaders in engineering are now in a different 'Project Management' career stream from the teams that they manage. • Tends to over-promise work-from-home possibilities during interviews
