Pros

* The office is generally ok. * Teams can be understanding and nice overall. * Can learn a lot if you are in the right team. * Canteen in office is nice. * Gym in office is nice. * Towel service in office is nice. * Glasgow management are very nice.

Cons

* Team dynamics vary—some teams are supportive, while others have managers competing for promotion at the expense of their teams, creating a toxic environment and hindering progress. * The overall work environment can feel uninspiring. * Seasonal events (e.g., Christmas, Summer parties) are self-funded, typically costing £20–£30 for entry and limited drink tokens. * Company events are not particularly inclusive for non-drinkers.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
