      Thanks for your review. Our dynamic working has certainly been of benefit to our colleagues in these challenging times. We have 70,000 colleagues staying safe at home at the moment so I really hope you are one of them.

      Solid international company

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working conditions are pretty good. Employer provides visa support and competitive salaries.

      Cons

      Some projects are not tempting at all. It is the matter of luck sometimes. The promotion system is not so rapid. Like other big companies it is better to sit there for a long time to get promoted.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nothing is positive at all

      Cons

      Where to begin. - no development - UK centric with no involvement from the US - broken processes - no respect - lack of ownership - UK employees are favored over US - Whippany location is trying to be sold as a “high tech” location. When in reality it is a remote location, where your career becomes stagnant and essentially as an employee you’re forgotten. - Morale is at an all time low and it’s challenging to come to work - Resignation will continue to occur
