Pros

Culture. The people and the feel of the company are just right. We're all totally in it together. Worst thing is that I'm rubbish at pool, and some people are scarily good. It's nice that it's *okay* to be rubbish though! Lots of social opportunities, but there's no requirement to be a party animal - people take you as you are. Office location (Farringdon/Barbican) - also that I don't have to be in the office all the time. I aim for once a week, sometimes twice. often to co-incide with an evening out. The work is good, but in the consultancy/services side I'm sure this will depend on the customer. So far though - awesome team and meaningful work! Food and tea, coffee, soft drinks available. Beer in the fridge for after work - but no pressure to drink (important for me). Lots of other things - decent training budget, Headspace subscription. Things that aren't *necessary* but which all help.

Cons

One of the meeting rooms is a little chilly at times. Umm... that's it so far! I guess the pension contribution's not that high, so worth ploughing more in - including our bonuses to take advantage of the tax/NI benefit.

Cons

Office space can get crowded on office days New joiners onboarding needs to be improved Needs more internal work available for when you are on the bench Needs more variety of projects Career progression needs to be better defined These are things that they are actively improving on as this is still a new company and they are always open to feedback
