I have been offered a graduate position at a large multi national company, but am having second thoughts whether to accept it. The money is excellant, the benefits are very good, and it seems like a decent company to work for. However, I have recieved my contract and my hours are 8.00am to 5.30pm.
This wouldn't be a problem, however the commute is really putting me off. I would have to leave the house at 6am to get the 6.15am train. This only takes about an hour so I would get into work at about 7.20 which leaves me with 40 minutes to waste. The train after leaves at 6.55am but gets in at 8.01am which is would make me late for work.
In all honesty, i'm questioning whether I can do this and still perform well in work. I don't want to take the job, be trained (lasts a month) and then have to leave if its too much. I would be up at 5.20am'ish and wouldn't get home until gone 7pm. I'm just not sure what to do, its a great oppurtunity but im not sure if I should carry on looking for a different position.
What is everyone elses commute like?
