Offices are bright, spacious and lit with ‘natural’ lighting. There are Xboxes and pool tables, universal wireless capability and a variety of working spaces. There are alternative therapies available for free and a myriad of social and sporting activities. There’s also an award-winning canteen, not to mention scenic picnic areas. And to top it all, you can even leave your suit at home.
