Pros
Generous pay and good conditions, personal growth opportunities were limited by the volume of work and time constraints, some very good people working there (technically and personally), leadership at the time was "knee jerk" which may not be the case now but endemic at the time. Data management excellent, technical work done to a high standard and resourced properly, some great people in there despite the culture!
Cons
Training was comprehensive and resourced properly, office culture very "political" at times with separate parts of the business throwing up road blocks to stop other parts of the business doing their job. Decision making not communicated well, and at the time, was prone to rash, un-necessary and ill-conceived changes of direction which they shouldn't have to do given their assets.
