Pros
-The travel can be very fun -for someone who isn't fsmiliar with the corporate world it gave me a much better understanding of everything and set me up with lots of transferable skills -I was managed by some kind people
Cons
-Starting salaries are low relative to both the workload and level of responsibility expected. I earnt more money stocking the shelves at Lidl. Overtime is heavily normalised. -Employee turnover is high. The environment favours people who are exceptionally organised and can operate under sustained pressure for long periods doing repetitive work -Management styles can be highly micromanaged. For graduates entering their first professional role, it can lead to unhealthy working habits becoming normalised, because of lack of experience in other work environments. -The culture can feel quite insular, with many senior managers having spent all of their careers at Hanson Wade. -People are often feeling unheard or unable to influence outcomes even if they speak up.
