I asked all the relevant questions but the secondment manager was very negative in her responses and I felt bad vibes. The role was perfect and exactly what Ive been dreaming of . But every question I'd ask she would be negative and say x person is tough x team will write bad reviews.

Is anyone willing to share their experiences?
