Awful, cliquey place to work - Administrative Assistant Mi5 Employee Review

Very cliquey, unfriendly place to work where admin staff are seen as the lowest of the low. Intrusive vetting process to actually get the job. Low pay for central London. If you face doesn’t fit, you won’t progress. I left to go back to university to retrain and I’m now much happier and earn twice as much money rather than doing some crappy, menial admin role. Poor line management. Most of the staff who work here doing admin are chavvy, Essex types who think they are special.
