Vantaggi
90% of AA-HO grade staff are excellent people who genuinely want to serve the country. Job is interesting and can be varied. Easy access to main location. Good transport links. Good money but you sacrifice more, eg weekends, evenings etc. Get to see some beasts of the sky up close!
Svantaggi
Senior management shocking at making important decisions No real development opportunities only on paper. You join a team and are stuck love it or hate it. Doesn't really care for its shift working officers, prioritises admin staff over shift workers. Force by name only more of an administration rather than law enforcement. Too many grey areas, make it up as you go along procedures. Makes the met police service look competent and caring.
