Pros

The ability to work in multiple branches gives you exposure to many different teams. The employees in the branches were very kind and very transparent. You are allowed to take as many license exams as you wish and it is encouraged.

Cons

The program is unorganized and lacks direction. The communication between the program heads and the branches where the analyst work is very poor. If you aren't proactive you can end up getting lost in the shuffle and not having a role. If you are proactive it may be seen as dissatisfaction. If you have prior finance experience or hands on internships this job is a step back.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
