Pros

Lots of interesting project. A lot of really smart people around. Salaries higher than in other places in Scotland.

Cons

Constant pressure to promote to the next levels (even on senior positions, as I was), this makes work a bit anxious. Too much attention on writing (especially on more senior levels), which makes it harder for non-native speakers to excel.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
