Best advice would be to just stay and look for an alternative in the meantime (especially in this shit job environment in London).

If it's that bad and money is not an issue then quitting may make sense but given you are now at the 3 month mark, it would be odd to just outright quit without a really good explanation - it will show up in your background checks.

Best of luck.

That's probably the safest thing to do. I'd hate to break it to you but the job situation in London will be bad for a while in my opinion. Because the rate of jobs moving overseas is higher than the rate of people emigrating. And the £ has dropped but so has the €. 

 

Do not disagree!

Currently tempted to suck up the weird Dubai culture for the tax-free £££.

What's so bad about the culture in Dubai? Biggest problem with the middle east is that it's a bit boring but Dubai has plenty to offer. I'd probably pick Abu Dhabi over it but most would be the other way around. But I am a bit weird in that I don't need much to be entertained so I can survive in a boring place. At least you don't fear you'll get cut in half for your rolex over there - have you seen what's happening in London with watch thefts in broad daylight?

I lived in the middle east for awhile - got treated pretty well I have to say. Yes, it gets to over 50C and they lie that it's 49C and you get the storms and you've got very strange stuff but you also get a road repaved overnight - have you seen how long roadworks take in the UK? Months and sometimes years. I lived near the houses of parliament and on my 10-15 min walk to work to Oxford Circus I went by at least 20 construction sites. Not only are they an eyesore but they also block the pavement.

 

Lmao How does a thread asking about leaving jp Morgan early turn into a discourse on Englands modern day construction complex
