      Good place to work but some morale issues

      Pros

      - Reasonable compensation. - Access to a number of very smart people. - Good benefits compared to competing firms. - A very good balance between family life and work life.

      Cons

      - Morale is poor in some areas of the firm. - At times, there is an in-congruence between internal news about our success and what we see externally.

      Was good. It is now truly, truly awful

      Pros

      Some good and talented people, who are usually marginalised, under-rewarded, and exploited

      Cons

      Constant churn of senior management who are brought in from outside and who are frankly incompetant. Back stabbing is rife, there is no strategy, people take credit for things others work hard on, decisions are made that would make a mad man scratch his head. There is no future for IT staff based in the UK - its ALL being moved to India. Current management have sacked hundreds in support roles, the number of live incidents goes up, but apparently the two arent linked ! I am off...
