Pros

The products are rather advanced compared to the industry, otherwise not many pros to mention. The sales compensation plan as well as the benefits in the UK are rather average.

Kontras

They try to match almost every salary expectations because nobody is interested in a career with them. In the beginning they blind new employees with nice trips to the US but often unhelpful training and then let them work totally unsupported. Support from 1st. line management is mostly non-existent, even for important sales related decisions. There is no culture, other than bullying, back-stabbing and hostility in the Reading office. In general the work-environment is rather ridiculous and anything else but professional. The Reading UK office is also based in a business park which is rather hard to reach, often clogged with traffic jams or unreliable public transport.

Pros

fairly lax with lots of time to do things

Kontras

many. Former CEO ran things poorly and took in managers who brought along their problems and animosities with them. Not only that, they were allowed to invite their friends to come and join too, many of them owing their jobs to someone creating a bro culture. Even though top mgmt changed since the sale, its many of these people still there to this day. Most of the systems were a black box, existing engineers were mostly uncooperative to keep their knowledge to themselves, the offshore engineers in one particular country were especially bad for this. I have seen major accomplishments achieved by someone, where so many others had failed, only to get fired soon after.
