Don't expect the job you applied for
Pros
- People I work with around my grade are very good people. - A lot of people with good potential and idea sharing. - There can be opportunities to move across to other teams where you want to be in however it is not as clear cut as made out to be. - Bonus isn't bad.
Cons
- It has changed drastically since COVID with regards to it's 'deal' now backtracking on its flexibility for people. - The job you applied for isn't what you will get, you may be benched or put in a very different line of work where they want you to be regardless of the role you have applied for. This is a main reasoning for Associates/Senior Associates be 'short' in their moderation's for promotion and why many of my colleagues have left. - Level of pay isn't 'competitive', you may be working for quite some time but someone can come into the business at the same grade from another company on higher money in the band.
