Pros
Great potential for career progression Exposure to financial markets Close mentoring from industry professionals
Cons
Extremely challenging to get started in the industry Company reputation is poor in the industry - often you are judged not by your own actions, but by the actions of your predecessors Promises of financial reimbursement are not always kept As a graduate working at the company for 6 months, it is clear that there are huge obstacles to getting started in the industry at deVere. Having been fortunate enough to work directly for a great consultant who looks after his clients, I have seen the best parts of the company/industry. It remains, however, a great challenge to start out, and you will need to invest heavily in yourself to succeed.
