Pros

Not bad flexibility in working patterns.

Cons

Senior management refuse to move with the times so getting anything done within the IT sector is horrible. There is hardly any processes in place for project delivery and the ones they do have are old fashioned. Blame culture, absolutely no path for career progression. Majority of senior management in Glasgow office have their job because of length of service and not for any real job skills.

Pros

Are there any??have worked with them for 10yrs +,I am no further forward in my career than when I started.no opportunities to better myself,crap wages,crap management who take advantage of your good nature and dont listen to you when you have a problem.no praise or reward for doing a good job,the work shys and useless folk get more.they waste there time on a pointless apprenticeship scheme that takes on a bunch of idiotic youngsters that dont wont to learn yearly instead of helping and developing the skill sets of people who are already there.

Cons

Constantly promising to help further your career that never amounts to anything.upper management all pat themselves on the back for a job well done when the do nothing but cause problems.dont know how to manage people or help them fine tune there skills and the skills they want.to busy pushing people to deliver.wages are all wrong,you'll find people that do a fraction of what is required get paid far more than folk that graft and deserve it.

Pros

Good salary, good working hours.

Cons

Where to start?, this was a fantastic work hard, play hard company 'Orange Blood' which has now been destroyed by new senior management types on six figure salaries who don't know the business or the people that work for them. No career direction office rife with poisonous politics and back stabbing poor performance and attendance not addressed unqualified managers promoted to more senior roles and failure rewarded? HR support non existing CEO and senior directors absent, do not even say hello how do you do when they walk by or even know your face!
