  • Best thing

    Full time doesn’t always mean full time hours often having 3 days off a week. Also the people I work with are almost always great, and you get to travel.

    Worst thing

    Being a tiny part in a huge corporation for me has proven difficult to progress as interview processes have to be very filtered and not very personal. Also the pay is fine but people supporting themselves independently tend to need to work second jobs, especially if living in or around London.
