Pros
Some excellent people to work with. Supportive manager. Exciting projects and close interaction with suppliers and customers. Business is growing well.
Cons
Bonus dependent on performance of whole company and salary below market. Forced return to office after Covid. More support for new starters and workload inconsistent with timesheets needing to be filled with ‘productive’ work. Working for government means a lot of proccess. No team socializing. Promotions are not easy to get.

Thank you for your review and the interesting points that you've raised. QinetiQ has adopted a hybrid working policy (where geographical physical restrictions allow) so it would be worth speaking with your TL, GL or HR representative about this.
