How terrible is the London job market right now for LO equities?

Would love to get some opinions. I have flights booked to move to London in February. Can any please let me how the market is looking for fundamental/long only equity analysts at the moment? Is it an absolute bloodbath and I should wait it out etc?

Thanks.
