Unclear Path to Success - Rotational Analyst Monarch Investment and Management Group Employee Review

Blatant nepotism and favoritism. Prior industry experience and seniority at MIMG do not matter whatsoever. Numerous times peers were promoted within weeks of being hired, avoiding months of “crucial” rotation experience. They will constantly tell you that everyone goes through the rotations but that is not true. Asset managers are extremely reserved and don't care about you unless you are on their team. It’s hard to know who is looking for an analyst because they all already have one, or several.. Expectations are very vague on both the asset manager impression side, and the given rotation department you are in. Entirety of rotation program is long, 1.5-2 years. Hard work in each rotation is overlooked and ultimately pulls you away from the goal of the program. There are too many rotational analysts competing for the same position. There is a large roster waiting to get promoted all while they actively hire more. Direct reports will try and offload you to different departments unrelated to actually managing a Multifamily Portfolio, in hopes you may be selected one day. Department managers aren’t interested in training you during rotations since you are only there for a brief period. Remote location - zero lunch spots, zero WFH opportunities
