Pros

If you live in Dorking, it's the prettiest of the out-of-town sites. Most people really are very nice, but that's in stark contrast to the Executive Committee and most of the HR department. I note that this theme has come up in several other reviews - great co-workers, but not great executive management.

Cons

Executive Committee and some senior management go on and on about the Unum values - integrity, caring, pride, courage, commitment and accountability, without displaying a shred of any of these traits. It is also a bit worrying how out-of-touch many of the more senior figures are, both technically and in soft skills. They'll tell you very earnestly that black is white and expect you to believe it.
