Pros

Start on £30k and it's an easy intro to finance. The office is nice and there are great networking opportunities if you get to know the right people in news or sales. If your career goal is to become a manager it's very quick to progress - some people get promotions within a month. Lots of different nationalities within the office too.

Cons

Management is known to be terrible (perhaps for reason above) so turnover rate within the company is very high. Anyone who is intelligent but does not wish to join management tends to leave within 1.5 - 2 years.Due to this the people in each team always have newbies who lack specialist knowledge. Also, the company is hugely bureaucratic which frustrates anyone with any intelligence or strong work ethic.
