Vantaggi

* Some nice projects and teams * WFH is nice if that's your thing * Lots of training materials and sessions * Far, far better than being at a 'big consultancy' * Nice salary and pension for the location

Svantaggi

* Limited range of clients and staff seemingly on the bench for extended periods * Difficult to engage in group sessions and activities if you are on a busy project. Seeing all the activities going on in Teams whilst you could be on a stressful project is not fun to say the least * Clients using older more conservative technology choices (Jenkins , Java, Spring,...) Felt like going back to 2010 again * Microsoft Teams 🤮

Vantaggi

Nothing at all to be honest

Svantaggi

Was offered a role and signed my contract with Opencast as normal. They initially delayed my start date by a few weeks which eventually turned into serveral months without an explanation. I chased the HR team on a weekly basis to ask what was causing the delays but there was a lack of communication. They repeatedly misinformed me and misled me to believe that the delays were due to a delay in getting equipment. After several torturous months they turned around and told me that the role I had received a job offer for was no longer available. I had many offers on the table at the time of accepting this role with Opencast and as a result I am now back at square one - searching for a job.
