Actuarial Consultant
Pros: Work Life Balance. Team events every three months, good social aspects both within Actuarial and the wider firm, especially around Christmas. Challenging work with a wide variety of clients.
Cons: Can get pigeon holed into certain work that may not be the most interesting for you. Salary at the lower end of starting salaries for Actuarial Graduates. You do not get rewarded financially for working hard. If you work much harder than a collegue, you may get a 5 in your year end review as opposed to a 3, but this only results in an additional 4% of bonus, which when you look at the extra hours probably spend values your time at about $5 per hour or less.
