Pros
Get to travel the world pre-covid, great colleagues in emerging markets.
Cons
My part of the org is led by the Chief Risk Officer/Chief Strategy Officer. He just loves everything about himself. He dominates every meeting by somehow making it about him. It could be his team, his past experience or his family. If he has nothing to add he will repeat his questions over and over. In the beginning we were all impressed by his experience and had high hopes for him but he is a charlatan, he micro manages like crazy and calls it "rolling up his sleeves". He is an immature leader and does not deserve to be a executive at the company. Unfortunately his boss the CEO is less mature and less experienced so she doesn't know how to manage him. Tala is also the place where you can easily change your careers at very senior levels. For a company that is globally distributed with so many nuances in people policies the company should have a solid HR team led by someone with real experience. This company will be mediocre if its around in a few years.
