Pros

Worked for Freshfields Business Services in London - good work life balance. Training opportunities. Nice offices in London. A very English approach and care to their communications which was endearing. For example, due to a very hot day in London and the air con not working so well, a note was sent around to say that ice-creams would be shared in the afternoon to those people that has suffered the heat. (The temperature hadn't been pleasant, but it could have been a lot worse).

Cons

Had a years contract at Freshfields. However it means that five thousand pounds my salary I didn't get to see as it went to 'benefits' that I didn't have benefit from.
