Sure, I'm generalising. But it's a trend, and it's a fairly accurate generalisation in my recent observations.

Like the police force, or the army.
A "proper career" is also one where movement across the industry doesn't require the participant to stump up large sums of cash to move jobs. As a police office with experience working in, for example, London, you won't have to pay 20k to gain experience on the streets of, for example, Manchester if you should choose to move north for some reason.
