Pros

Software and equipment and cars. Most people are pretty nice. The age range varies from a few older guys to many twenty-somethings. They hire females so the mix is fairly good.

Cons

Lack of focus/direction. Lots of meetings that aren't beneficial most of the time. Too many projects that get started, stopped and revisited again after a competitor shows something similar. U.K. mentality in finances and management are outdated.
