Pros

Good people and friendly place to work. Potential for good experience and to take on responsibility at an early stage in your career. Experience of the full project lifecycle and client facing work with the possibility of moving to other areas of such a large business.

Cons

Recent salaries low in comparison to similar jobs elsewhere, particularly in Analytics roles. No clear salary bands so secrecy surrounds the pay of colleagues and no clear idea of what you may be earning in 4 years time. Reluctance to promote in lean times with the focus on the individual proving they have earned an average review rating. Reliant on your line manager and relationship with them for prospects (as anywhere I guess!). Prospects likely to improve when the economy picks up and money isn't as tight.

Pros

Decent salary & benefits, monthly no internal meeting days

Cons

Friendly reminder that HR does not care about you. They care about staff with seniority, whom they will allow to retaliate despite that being against company policies. Think twice about reporting the higher ups because it will come back to haunt you, guaranteed. Also, AI is the only thing that matters anymore. Watching the volume of once-impressive colleagues become so single and simple minded through constant AI usage is not only disappointing but genuinely alarming. Thinking for oneself is no longer the standard, it seems, and speaking against such unfettered use of AI in all things will get you professionally ostracized.
