Poor Graduate Scheme, Good if you progress

Project leader

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Good experience if you are lucky and/or are quickly promoted after the Grad scheme - A lot of trainings to choose from and managers who encourage learning - Good work/life balance - Good salary for the area

Cons

- Grad Scheme is very poorly designed. You can get lucky and have a brilliant experience, but that's for about 25% of the graduates. The rest do admin roles and get the worst responsibilities. - HR support during the grad scheme does not exist. - Performance is not considered when finishing the grad scheme.
