Pros

If you are willing to work hard and don't expect things to land in your lap you will do well here. Hard work is essential but rather than moan about having to put the hours in more people on this site should learn that no employer is going to reward a mediocre level of performance.

Cons

Having to deal with a lot of generation Y employees who as mentioned above believe the world owes them a living and who want to live the London lifestyle without grafting for many years to achieve a high level of success, which the management here have done. If you want more holidays be a teacher. If you want a 9-5 go and work in admin.

Pros

Can use this job to apply to other companies

Cons

Everything. Terrible pay, terrible leadership with no vision. Incredibly high turnover. At one point I was the most senior rep in the company at 5 months with GlobalData. From senior management, who is completely detached from everyone to the Managers, there is no vision or long term goal. Essentially hired people from a former employer and created a terrible environment. Does not pay out commission!
