Anybody with that sort of role that could give me some idea of what it's like? After 3 months, I've finally been offered this role. I have a few other (potentially better) job offers coming up. I know that the great thing of being s civil servant is job security and pension. Is there anything else to add? Commute will be a bit of a hassle and will need to leave about 10mins early to catch the train (but I'm sure the same applies to many more). Salary is on the lower end, but after being underemployed I believe this is better than what I've had for the past year.
