A world class science facility - Senior Software Scientist bei Diamond Light Source: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Many kind and dedicated coworkers Possibility of working on cutting edge science Interacting with academics from around the world on exciting science challenges

Too many layers of management and too little agency devolved through them Inconsistency in funding new projects - no transparency Repeated insistence on rebuilding wheels in house when solutions exist commercially Management not giving the impression that experimental support, the facility's actual raison d'etre, is a funding priority

They offer potential long service (typical public service). Good pension. Lots of interesting roles.

Poor renumeration You can get siloed into a job. Management lacks clear direction. There are staff who don't pull their weight, which impacts others motivation
