Pros

-I did not know anything about finance, just had sales experience to my name and an open mind to learning and they took me in and tought me so much. -Benefits are top tier, from the basics to some that you didn't know they even existed. -They give you 8 hours a quarter for personal development. -Good pay without even including bonus or language add ons. -You will learn a LOT -

Cons

-2 year role commitment -Very corporate so might not let be your true self in the job with peers.

Pros

There are a few great managers here, but they are few and far between. Good amount of sick pay.

Cons

Underpaid for the role. Just another cog in the machine to get tasks done. If you don’t have seniority, but are being mistreated by individuals who are more senior, be ready to shoulder the blame for errors even if you are new. The lack of training is astounding, especially for some departments that are expanding. Lots of koolaid drinking. If you care about being kind and authentic, be careful which team you land with. Take your time during the interview process.
