Vantaggi
Opportunities at lots of big events to establish a strong network in the Energy industry.
Exposure to high profile clients.
The people are genuinely nice and mean well.
Thrown into the deep end on client work fairly quickly, learn a lot & quickly from skilled colleagues. But this is also a downside...
Svantaggi
...Whilst the company pride themselves on finding "strong performers", this creates a sink or swim culture which can be really detrimental for fresh out of University graduates, especially when the company offers no training.
Total lack of transparency over job role, career progression, pay; this can create somewhat of a weird culture.
Poor work-life balance. Expected to work well beyond the contracted hours as the norm; rather than productivity it's about who's in the office the latest.
Projects are often disorganised and last minute with no real project management.
The glass ceiling
