Vantaggi
Interesting work, friendly atmosphere, nice staff - I think it depends on which office (and potentially which team within a larger office), but mine suits me very well. Directors are approachable too.

Svantaggi
The pension is the government minimum (2% company contribution within certain bands so actually less) - negotiate the other 3% on your salary if you're interviewing. Holiday is less than some of the big industries but ties in with other small companies.
