Business outlook
Pros
Start-up atmosphere, flexible working times, occasional social events, one or two decent colleagues, little pressure, the job itself is incredibly easy in many roles. I'd say it's a good first job post-uni, as long as you're not planning on having a London social life.
Cons
Two joint managers, one of which is way better-qualified for the role than the other, yet often has to pander to the other. Appalling pay, particularly for a London job (starts around 23k). Dingy, poorly-ventilated and poorly-lit basement office. No genuine opportunity to move up the company, so they'll instead offer to make you "Senior" this or "Analyst of" that, without it being reflected in your salary.
