Pros

- Working with advanced automotive technology within a dynamic environment proves positively challenging - Qualitative trainings and opportunities to develop skills not only for current roles, but also future responsibilities - Excellent work-life balance - Paid overtime if required and generally good remuneration for a graduate scheme - Good management (but this can vary)

Cons

- The graduate scheme in JLR is vastly different between teams and departments; this is not initially specified and can lead to predicaments such as no placements in other departments - Management can have the tendency not to acknowledge graduate strengths and passions hence guiding them in the direction they see fit - Work can be rather monotonous and static - Change is very slow - Lack of new challenges - A gentle learning curve which does not challenge the individual or get one of of one's comfort zone
