Pros

Great Intern Program. 10 weeks of a well constructed program. They encourage you to meet directors and managing directors - which is a great idea - and the directors seem to be quite used to the idea by now and sometimes take the interns out to lunch

Cons

its located in canary wharf - not in the city. some people who like to drive may prefer this, but depending on where you live it leads to a longer commute

Pros

Workload is manageable they don’t put too much on you. Hybrid you come into office once a week.

Cons

Some managers are nice some are not and if you have a manager who doesn’t like you it will make the job stressful. If you get a zero for QA part of your bonus will be gone and if you get 3 within a 7 month period you will have to come into office 3 days a week and be on a final and will not get a bonus, bonuses could be higher in my opinion, if your not a good collector they could be as low as $500-$700 every 3 months if your a decent collector they could be $1500 every 3 months if your a good collector they could be $2250-$3375 every 3 months but the base pay isn’t high enough either it’s 50k to 56k all around just not enough money
