Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Great career progression - average skills development
Pros: Flexibility

Socials and the people

Promotions almost guaranteed if you just do the extra hours.

Opportunities to get involved to projects outside of your expertise

Forward looking and actively adapting to new technology and industry trends
Cons: All the operational tasks that you are asked to do on top of your chargeable work (proposals, timesheets, pricing, budgeting, client risk assessments, project “housekeeping”, notes keeping, booking meetings etc.).

A lot of the time focus is in doing things quickly as there is always time pressure to finish the project. For junior staff this means that there is little opportunity to get into real depth on what you are doing or time to actually learn.

+ Audits are mind-killingly boring (of course this only applies if you have not joined as an auditor)
