Pros

On the whole most people are friendly and good fun. As far as property goes Knight Frank is one of the best if not the best property companies in the UK so will look impressive on your CV. Broad range of clients and work. Opportunities to move laterally as it's a big company. Overseas opportunities too.

Cons

No diversity. There are only about four female equity partners. There are a lot of egos in the business. The head office is overcrowded as the won't spend money on getting more office space despite expansion. Salary and bonuses aren't transparent and are completely arbitrary and depend a lot on personalities. Lot of support staff turnover.

Pros

International branding, which may or may not get you started in your property career.

Cons

No base salary. Ridiculous commission deductions. Sexist corporate culture. Long hours. In summary: overworked and underpaid while being bullied if you do not play along to their boy's club mentality.
