What’s it like, working for ABS?

At dinner you meet an old friend of yours, who now works for ABS. He tells you what it is like working for that organization.

“What’s it like? I am happy. There are good promotion prospects if you are interested. And there’s a very good training scheme. At the moment I’m considering a transfer to another division. Salaries are quite competitive; there’s a generous profit – sharing scheme too. There is also a five – week holiday allowance, which is better than in a lot of firms.

What else is there to say? A company car, of course. Quite a good pension scheme. That’s it.
