I've just been given an offer for a years time, and I have to accept by mid Sept - I assume there will be no issues with accepting, and then cancelling if something better comes along?

Because i've worked there before, i've been told things are different in this new region i'm going to. I also haven't even applied for any other jobs, so can't compare to other offers.

I've also considered a side step in career, and a lot can change in the year. It would be nice to have this as a backup if all else fails.

Sorry, didn't make it clear, it is a graduate position, and it is a year until I graduate. I worked for them on my industrial placement, and had a nightmare of a time, but told that it isn't the case everywhere - and colleagues have testified to this.

The situation is that I have worked with them for several years doing work experience, placements etc - however only doing one type of work. I don't like being pigeon holed, and at my stage of career, it is not great for the CV.

I have been promised other types of work, however have a suspicion that they may fall back on this.

My first while at the company is a weeks notice either way, so will go along, and hope they deliver. They are a good company on the whole, just in the past I worked for the worst bit.
