Pros

Free Canteen, Supportive UK R&D directors who share their experiance and knowledge. using Altium Designer. Hybrid working. Air con works.

Cons

1.) Vervent Audio Group - They dictate new products and set unrealistic deadlines that are mandatory to meet - the quality Naim is known for has been seriously erroded in favour of quick win profits and a poorly driven venture into the 'luxury market'. 2.) The lack of trust and one way communication by the French owners has caused unrepairable friction which has caused highly skilled engineers to seek employment elsewhere. Few orginals still remain! 3.) Group prefer to use ODMs and off-the-shelf modules rather than use the design talent available in Salisbury. Hand-holding ODMs is now the role of R&D engineers. 4.) The Salisbury traffic is regularly a nightmare.

Pros

Excellent products based on sound engineering principles

Cons

The main company decisions are now made by the financiers based in France who do not understand what has previously made NAIM products so excellent.

Pros

Amazing historical products made by people that really care

Cons

Product strategy set by people entirely clueless in France.. All the good stuff to come developed entirely by people no longer in the business. Most directors have been dismissed or quit -former MD, operations/site director, head of marketing, R&D director, design director, all the marketing department! Literally no one left.
