Pros

Great starter job. High autonomy from the off, great starting salary and uncapped bonus is great. Very hands on management and training style is great to start but also borders on micro-management a lot. One of the most senior people at the company told me ‘I see micromanagement as a good thing’ so it goes to show. In fairness, the company and my manager we’re very helpful in addressing my weaknesses (they try with everyone) and improving my work ethic and organisation. Vibrant and fast-paced company doing very good things in the space - perfect job straight out of uni for 2 years if you want to get stuck in, work out what you want to do next (many people do), spend time with people your age and get paid well.

Cons

Fake and disillusioned. Work-life balance really sucks. My manager and I were once told off by our VP for not working throughout the weekend to fulfill an urgent client request. A bit of think skin needed, many stories of clients and managers making associates cry. Model to only hire internally and allow 22 year olds to manage teams and multi-million £ accounts leads to a very favouritist and quietly toxic work environment full of fake praise and false promises. Very low sense of fulfillment despite management trying to convince you you’re making the world a better place. Cuthroat - underperform for 2 months and you’ll be on watch and likely on a PIP.
