Business Outlook
Pros
Good graduate training covering both the financials of trading a business and the soft skills of influencing, leadership and feedback. Opportunity to take on responsibility at an early stage and travel within the UK/Europe depending on your department. Promotion comes relatively quickly if you play the game right.
Cons
Be aware that there is a 3 month probation period which is not a formality - there are graduates on every intake that don't make it. Limited career path unless you want to become a Buyer, with charm and chat often valued above true talent and some good people unfortunately not rewarded for their hard work.
