Pros

Give you training for the first 12 weeks, intensive application process so it feels good when you get it. Good achievement

Cons

Low pay, they advertise their locations as London, Leeds or Glasgow but you have to work with clients who may have different locations. Does not mean you will be working in London, Leeds or Glasgow, but somewhere near those areas. Was a bit misleading.
