Pros

Work life balance. Flexi working. working from home

Kontras

Current chief executive (Paul) is creating a culture of fear, People don't feel safe to challenge him. He's also sacking (or "deleting") lots of jobs without actually making people redundant - its basically right on the edge of constructive dismissal. It pains me because i've been a loyal employee for over a decade and it just makes me sad that a once great institution is a shadow of its former self. It must be dreadful working with us, and it must be dreadful trying to get us to do work.

Thank you for your review. It is great you enjoy the work life balance and benefits. There are times where employees work longer working hours but this time is compensated in either overtime or can be accrued as flexi-time. It is great you find the role and work rewarding. Thank you again for your review.

Pros

The work in some parts of the organisation is good. There are several opportunities to work with foreign governments on some leading technology programmes.

Kontras

Management is poor, in some cases bullying is rife, the executive board are totally detached and the CEO is a halfwit. The Helios change programme was shady with studies being carried out until the 'correct' answer was achieved. Pay is well below the MOD and following the recent move to no longer run under trading fund status and to become a core part of MOD, pay scales will not be harmonised, so do not count on equity in pay.
