Pros

Subscription to a good quality video course library to learn from A good internal project to work on from which useful things learnt Free tea/coffee/hot chocolate Travel expenses paid for certain period if meet criteria

Cons

Lack of clients unlike what was made out to be Rude trainer (in one of the streams) Likely to face worse case scenario (no pay for at least 5 months before being allowed to leave) Training is not intense or even present once the core training finishes

Pros

Fast paced, with high regulation, demanding legacy with major scope for turning this around. We're well down the path towards CD/CI with a number of applications. Management listens and explains their strategy if you're good and humble you'll go far. Must be practical and hands on, no room for bystanders and people that blow hot air.

Cons

Salaries are not competitive, regulated and pressured environment isn't for everyone. Overtime is frequent but again, suits some not others.

Capita Novus Programme

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Decent training - practical as well as theory based training OK earning potential when on assignment Ability to work on more than one assignment meaning you get some varied experience A good team helping out with finding next assignment and organising travel/accommodation. I eventually went perm at my last client, this programme gave me the foot in the door I needed.

Cons

Sometime spent on the bench in between assignment but this did mean I could do some additional training and take some exams before starting my next assignment.
