Pros

Private medical insurance, Free decent tea/coffee (when they management want to pay for it)

Cons

Lots of false promises Very Americanised culture (Aka be grateful you have a job, don't complain, do as you're told now and treated like utter dirt) Free milk for tea/coffee often get's axed, blamed on the shop floor for using it in their cereals when it's actually the office staff having loads of drinks Management heavy, MD for Farnborough doesn't even know why it's called the "shop floor" despite being an engineer for 20 years! HR are about as useful as a chocolate teapot, can't do anything properly Lots of clicky groups, backstabbers and people on power trips! Lots of nonsense about clocking in/out, when you can go home, work is sporadic either too busy or not enough so you're standing around for 12 hours straight.

Cons

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.
