Pros
You’re almost guaranteed a placement after training. The trainers are usually very nice and helpful. You get plenty of support DURING training (almost none after).
Cons
-If you leave before the first 2 years, you have to pay for the training (costs more than 2 years of a university degree) -The pay is awful -After training, you’re left to sink or swim. -No say in what placement you get. If you dislike the placement or are a bad fit for the role, you’re stuck for the length of the contract. -After the mandatory training, I was asked to complete upskilling training ahead of my placement. Still went into the placement with absolutely no useful knowledge and it was very difficult to get my bearings.
