Pros
Location is great on Regent Street. Flexible working post Covid with everyone working from home when I left. Everyone is always helpful and willing to support. A culture of asking questions is encouraged and everyone supports each other. I felt confident in approaching my peers and senior management such as Team Leads and VPs whenever I needed them. A very supportive culture. Lots of company initiatives such as weekly yoga and meditation, generous company events pre-lockdown, free Deliveroo for working late. Good starting salary with strong commission if you perform well. The company mostly promotes from within for senior positions so if you are performing it seems they will reward you. Can be used as a stepping stone into other industries as you are exposed to virtually every industry you can think of. It is great as a first job and you also get to use your languages skill so they don't go rusty.
Cons
High salary is a blessing and a curse as you don’t learn many hard skills. It's mostly communication (oral and written) and improving your confidence / languages. The nature of the job as an Associate means the role can get repetitive. There can be long hours due to some experts being in the US.
