Good work-life balance, but progression is lacking - Recensione dipendente - Project Support Officer presso Defence Science and Technology Laboratory

good work life balance with benifits

long working hours at times but is rewarding

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

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.
