      Cons

      It is long hours and hard work - but I don't know why people wouldn't expect this from a career as that is how you get and reach success.

      Pros

      I joined deVere straight from university at 21, 8 years ago, and have so far worked and lived in Malta, Doha, Geneva and Porto. My training, Qualifications, career progression and earning potential have far exceeded my expectations.

      Cons

      There can be long working hours, but if you want to succeed in any job or industry this is standard.

      Not for your average person

      14 Oct 2020 - Anonymous Employee

      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I have been with the company for 18 months after joining as a grad. The first 12 months of this were tough and I worked harder than I had ever done in my life for little financial reward. The management structure rewards those who are committed. I was putting in 60 hour weeks and although I was not seeing the monetary gain at that point, I was given access to the world class training I needed. 18 months later my earnings are reflecting the work I put in, and everyone knows the earning potential in this industry. The thing with the role is that most people do not stick through the tough times to get to this point and that is a shame. My best advice is to come into the company fully committed or don't come into it at all. Look at the people who have succeeded and follow their example.

      Cons

      Long hours are expected - but if this puts you off then financial advice is probably not for you. Fast paced, things change quickly in the company and you have to be on your toes.
