Pros
Flexibility (but this isn't always a good thing)
Cons
- Lack of direction from management - Rude management expecting work without even asking for it then blaming you for lateness - Everything promised on the graduate scheme is a lie - no rotations, stuck in meaningless 'PMO' tasks that should be offshored, all company processes are incredibly bureaucratic making jobs too stressful. - Will never be on a 'consulting project' as everything is IT based and the customers don't really care - Never assigned to roles, told to find them yourself, which is hard to do in 100,000 strong organisation - Finances all over the place, releasing next years risk budget to hit targets probably not a sensible idea - Loan ties you in for longer than the 18 month scheme, bit of a con, can't leave unless we pay this off, clever way of making people stay - If you want to feel a part of a company, work somewhere small, there is no sense of a team.
