Good starter for career

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Free food, snacks, benefits (401k), smart colleagues, offices look nice, the opportunity is what you make it

Cons

Management is not meant to manage at times and are there purely because they stayed long enough. Hr is to protect interests of company as they do not take action to fire people with harassment history. Managers purposely plan to overwork you (bickering over the right way to phrase the ask to employees to not get sued) and company is in lawsuit right now for theft of unpaid wages. If you work overtime, they do not pay 1.5 but at diminishing rate so you can be working 5-7 hours more a day at less than half of what you make in an hour.

Great Company But Unfortunately Wrong Team

Financial analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Bloomberg will help you fulfill any reasonable career goals/transitions you may want. Just pray your team is flexible. -People avoid drama -Access to terminal is useful

Cons

-It is better not to go above and beyond here . Managers take that and squeeze even more without treating you any better -by avoiding drama people sweep problems under the rug, but managers keep making staff touch the rug so at least leave the whole thing alone! -management thinks for short-term and doesn't think of what's sustainable for team -staff with serious personality issues are being supported because they're chummy with the right people. they get invited for coffee while capable people just get handed more work with no recognition.

Pros

Benefits are good and pantry

Cons

Pay doesn’t keep up with other tech companies. Also, they got really lame once they started tracking “badge-ins.” For a “progressive” company they sure are anchored to the old ways of working. In office culture is crap and it won’t surprise me if management uses your in-office days for end of year reviews. Used to be fun but now they’ve gotten weird.
