I dont know much about london - but its rare and unlikely to find all of what you want in one place - there probably needs to be a compromise somewhere - the economy is not great and if you want something that pays well - but also doesnt want you working more than 40 hours a week (what job is only 40 hours a week any more other than checkout jobs at supermarkets or governement jobs?) - and will still promote you regularly enough (given that you're working 40 hours a week and not going over and above in your efforts). My concrete suggestion (because im not a big fan of just criticising without providing something concrete in return) would be to find a place that pays you well enough to look after your family - and lets you do something you like. IF you're doing something you like and are growing into newer areas - you'll thrive - and you'll be positioned to be exposed to further opportunities in those areas - one or the other of which might be that opportunity that ticks of all the boxes for you! |

I think this is an American perspective. Plenty of very good jobs in Europe and London in particular are 40 hour weeks. Plenty of research shows that people are more productive in the long term working 40h/wk.
