Pros

- Laven is an industry leader in compliance/regulatory hosting services, and it has been operating for nearly 20 years. The team is smart and friendly, and the location of the office is super central (at Bank). Hybrid working means you can work from home 2-3 days a week. - Laven offers a comprehensive training programme for new starter, which is great for more junior staff as you will learn everything about the compliance/regulatory field. - You need to be able to multitask and manage time efficient, and you can most certainly learn a lot on the job. There are opportunities for career progression/promotion.

Cons

- Due to recent changes to the company as a whole, systems to manage, monitor and communicate need to be updated. You need to be able to work with different channels and resources to stay efficient and effective. - Sometimes can lack clarity or direction from management, which means you need to self-motivate and initiate projects to deliver your job and beyond.

Pros

I honestly can’t think of any.

Cons

Toxic work culture and extremely rude management. They are literally bullies who will shout at you in front of your colleagues!

Pros

Had a pretty good experience working at Laven Partners. At the time of my employment the company was relatively small so the communication with everyone was very good, the CEO is very accessible and always available for questions, he is very keen on teaching you as much as possible and that was very good. Definitely learned a lot. Had exposure to various departments which helped me get a good understanding of Laven core products but also client types and specs. I learned a lot about the industry. Good colleagues, CEO/Managers are picky and demanding but that's all for good - makes you excel in what you do.

Cons

A lot of work - its great to be busy and learn a lot but sometime it was a bit too much especially if you have to also manage quite some operational matters (not client related) long hours. As a fast growing company, multitasking is the norm and they are very cautious on costs which can be frustrating.
