Pros
Variety of work, applications, technologies Leading edge automating processes and integrating with many third party applications, including many banks Variety of Clients generally great to work with Bosses very supportive and understanding of personal issues Challenging role very enjoyable and keeps life interesting Remote working since initial lockdown for protection of team which I find works very well. Very nice office when anyone does have to go in to prepare hardware etc for customers, great location, close to station and right next to all shops and restaurants etc. Good quality equipment supplied to home, VOIP high tech phones, headsets for Microsoft Teams, 2 monitors and PC
Cons
Has been stressful at times but team is now expanding to accomodate the growth and success of the business with some great new additions Can require some out of hours support but not too often and just like every other IT role I have had in my 35 years in IT Need to slow downa little at times and not take on too much new development but at the same time this is largely driven by customer demand and competition between clients to keep one step ahead
