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.

Avantages

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

Inconvénients

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.
