      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Kidlington office has free gym, decent canteen, flexible hours, some very good teams, friendly environment, social people, good package

      Cons

      Bad management in a lot of teams, graduate scheme is not what it's sold to be, little to no coding, 'software engineer' post means 'assistant' for a lot of graduates
