Evaluating your current job is never an easy task.
Over the next few months we will be looking at things to consider and helping you to separate the positive from the negative.
This month: Things to consider…
If it was simply the legal work that you do then the decision on ‘is this best for me now’ would be much easier but your job does not sit in isolation from your life.
- Personalities in the office
- Opportunities for progression
- Salary, remuneration and benefits
- Commuting
- Office politics
- Flexibility
- Culture
All these things have a bearing on how you perceive your working life and how well it fits into your home life. Over the next few months we will try to break these areas down for you offering what we know about the market and what we have observed over the years by way of guidance for you to make your own decisions.
We are always happy to talk to legal professionals at any stage of your career and as advance warning we are hosting, with the Suffolk and North Essex Junior Lawyers Division (SNE-JLD) a careers talk for trainees on 11th May 2017 in Ipswich.
