      Many IT positions are managed by corporate in the United States, which can restrict certain career advancements for people living in the United Kingdom.

                      The winding job is hard on your hands. And the company wants its targets to be met.

                      Cons

                      Too much agency stuff, they even get rid of the agencies and change them like the people. Care only about their profit. The managers are without former qualifications. Just brown nose career climbers.

                      What are your thoughts on companies requesting references before scheduling an interview? Recently got a request for an interview but the instructions were to provide 3 references first.
