Unstructured work with unclear career path
Pros
-Some exposure to MBS trading (which is how they lure people in describing the job as a "trading role", in reality it is mostly troubleshooting software errors and helping dumb clients reset their passwords all day) -Some people are smart but most just know a lot about the software and not much about anything else - You do not need any kind of degree to work at the company (not sure if it is a pro)
Cons
- Literally anybody could do this job, it is so niche that you need to be at the company for years before having even a small idea of what is going on around you - Insufficient training: new hires are mostly left to fend for themselves for most of the time, then they are micromanaged if things go wrong - Clients are annoying, rude and at times do not even know what is going on in their own file. You are expected to solve things for them even if you have no clue either - Salaries are 25-30% below industry averages, so people leave as soon as they can (turnover is extremely high even at managerial level)
