Pros
I've found my time so far at Nominet incredibly positive - working with a great group of people towards aims and goals I really agree with. My experience of working with senior management has been positive - and it was clearly spelt out to me on joining that one day I would be expected to be in the office more. I don't mind about that - I'm paid well, and the job has a really strong benefits package.
Cons
I can't really think of any.

Pros
In my opinion Nominet is a very enjoyable place to work. The SecOps team is great, team leader is very friendly and knowledge and cares about his team members. Remote working is nice as they have left it up to the teams to decide how this is going to be done and my team leader has been great with it. I am aware that there has been leadership restructuring recently and I can't speak to that as I wasn't here for that but now things seem to have settled down and the work is good and the company ethos is very positive. Their office building in Oxford is soo beautiful and has been great to work there the off-times I have.
Cons
The companies working policy is hybrid but contracts still have a place of work. I live quite far away and this makes feel nervous that it could change at anytime.

Pros
A fair deal, Nominet understand paying the right package gets you the right people. Nominets employee package is an example of that. Great teams, willing, joined up and communitive, empowering and helpful
Cons
Seem to rush into big projects head first, when they should evaluate and assess first. But overall not afraid to do something because we should and not just because we are told.
