Pros

Great peers and sabbatical leave is a rare benefit.

Cons

Microclimate within SAM with narrow minded senior leaders. Impossible to get funding for struggling teams which keeps operations running. Quiet leaders get snubbed for promotion yet talkers get recognized.

It helps to hear where the experience has been strong and where it has been disappointing. Good to see that team and benefits are supporting you in a practical way. At the same time, leadership consistency matters, and this is helpful to hear. Feedback like this gives teams a more complete picture of what employees value and where more progress is needed. Thanks again for taking the time to share this review.

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.
