Pros

Not as big and bad as other engineering consultancies. Seems to be surviving OK so far in variable market.

Cons

Bad location in Docklands. Noisy open plan office with small desks all in one row, no privacy, constant interruptions and distractions and difficult environment to concentrate on work. Everyone is being jammed into already tight space so that another floor can be made vacant for joint venture project. Dark ,depressing interior. Can hardly see in some locations. My boss constantly criticises everything that I and others in the group do and say. The fault finding is relentless and destructive. It is at the stage where we don't even bother trying because whatever we do isn't good enough and no-one can meet his expectiations. Totally sick of it and the effect it has on self-esteem.
