Often slow trajectory. Intense working hours and training. Work-life-study balance challenging to family life. Poor public perception and demanding patients. No guarantee of receiving training contract in specialty of choice

Pros

pension scheme, under so much media scrutiny that the pressure leads to overwork and more benefits to clients

Cons

Under too much pressure No time to use the toilet sometimes Too many targets and more and more documentation each year minimising patient contact Lack of resources due to tight budgets Under media scrutiny so more pressure Too many bank staff on wards Not enough nurses going on strike and patronised and bullies such as doctors and psychologists...yes, psychologists who are snooty and believe themselves better than nurses NMC fees up every year despite very minimal salary increase Who monitors our management Directors not visiting us and/or patients and their families but jus sending emails now and again to micromanage us
