The Role
No interesting work, no challenges, no advancement in skills, no workload
The work that i have been doing couldn’t prove my value
They helped if you asked but not everyone is keen to guide you
Absolutely bored. Very little work to do
Only responsible to create a new training deck. The rest, a 15 year-old with no background could do it
Just the communication skills will help.
The Company
Quiet
Good training sessions and talks. Not good evaluation methods for the offers
Only 2 talks and 1 excel training
Not a good career progression, with no interesting daily work
The Culture
Yes, good socials and environment
London is expensive everywhere
Canary Wharf is not a place that you can go out at night
None promoted
