They're well-known in Cambridge circles, though mostly as a place that hires graduates and offers a poor working environment until they leave a year later.
Autonomy was one of the places I worked very early on while getting enough of a CV to pick and choose. I was only there for a matter of months though, and in systems, but I really rather liked that job. In the end I left fairly rapidly because I couldn't cope with living in Cambridge (I like smaller places and I like being near the coast).
Looking back I'm fairly sure I was woefully underpaid for the position ... but also not nearly as good at it as I thought I was at the time. So if anybody reading this thread remembers my work less than fondly, sorry :)
