Pros

- I worked within a planning, regeneration and placemaking function and gained valuable exposure to local government planning and development projects. - Opportunity to work on a broad range of strategic planning, regeneration and placemaking initiatives. - Flexible working arrangements, including the opportunity to work a compressed four-day week.

Cons

- Limited progression opportunities. - Inconsistent management quality. - Performance and contribution were not always clearly recognised or rewarded. - Workplace culture can be politically complex, with inconsistent accountability and management oversight.
