Pros

excellent track record in terms of fund returns. some talented engineers work here. high quality of work done.

Cons

very slow and pedantic to do anything. all round very cheap: e.g. benefits - health care is capped at a very low number for UK employees; many things you have to buy yourself and claim back on expenses. There is even a time limit on this! while a lot of the engineers have talent, it depends who you are to get help from them. very cut throat in redundancies and they pay bear minimum in the process.
