Pros
Salary is reasonably competitive for the Birmingham market, workload is not usually unreasonable
Cons
The company is the polar opposite of an Agile shop. It feels very much like being a cog in a machine rather than a valued person. Upper management is insisting on an aggressive return-to-office plan despite having been successful with remote and hybrid work throughout the pandemic, citing "the need for face to face collaboration" even though most IT teams are geographically dispersed, and developers spend half their time on Teams meetings regardless of whether they are in office or remote.
