Pros
A way in to the industry. Good to get exposure in a company like EDF while working on the reliability project.
Cons
Pay is lower compared to other companies for that level doing the same role as it is a smaller company. No official training programme that was followed for grads or junior level staff by the company. So no correct path to follow to ensure possible progression, so can be denied any chance to progress for any reason required by management. Not much career progression with the company (Risktec) as there is little to zero support from senior management. If reviews were done by management actions were either not followed up or SMART. No HR department at the time so no impartial department to handle any forms grievance or methods of discrimination if believed without being direct to management. Little to no opportunities to work on other projects beyond the EDF reliability to gain further exposure or experience on what the company does.
