      Avantages

      The variety of work is very much a bonus, stuff you cannot do anywhere else.

      Inconvénients

      Pay, pay is far less than that of our civil service equivalent grade, and we mostly have to have a degree to work in the science and technology area, so for that we get paid less then equivalent grade and they do not require a degree. Career progression is now slow, the new changes have made my promotional prospects basically zero. The senior leadrship team are very much below par, there is a distinct disconnect between reality and what they think is happening, and when challenged, they get very defensive. Morale amongst the workforce is low, and the recent changes, that were handled awfully dod not make that any better.

      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.
