Pros
- when the economy isnt going off its a great job. while you will be held to high standards but the workload is manageable. never really work late. it is 9-6 though. - most teams do hybrid work, but the specifics are up to the team management. - the culture is very dependent on the team your placed on. you wont really know anyone outside your team, so its a little bit of a forced friend group. everyone is young. im 25 and im nearly the oldest one on a team of 20. - quarterly social outings like drinks or dinner. regular happy hours (theres a tap with beer/wine in the office) - free snacks, coffee, tea -beautiful nyc office
Cons
- when the economy is doing well they dont mind drowning you in work. ive mostly been here during the beginning of a recession, but the people senior to me say that last year they worked late all the time. so beware. - some teams discourage you from taking a lunch break. - a very white, privileged, homogeneous, "im from Connecticut" culture. if you thrived in a frat/sorority youll do well here. otherwise you might feel alienated.
