Pros

The salary and benefits is excellent, the hours manageable and there is excellent support for your family. The social scene is also really good.

Cons

It is a lumbering EU bureaucracy bereft of common sense or fairness. The quality of middle management can be really low, so despite the efforts from the Director to modernise and make it fit for purpose, no one feels empowered to do anything that isn't in the regulations. Career progression is a down to blind luck.
