Business Outlook

Pros

Good office with great view. Clear responsibility areas. Pay well. Interesting corporate events.

Cons

Carrier path is confusing. Higher management says the titles don't matter. May be it is so for them, but it ends up with random and unreasonable title assignment, which leads to unnecessary tensions (conclusion from conversions with colleagues).

Pros

- Lots of intellectual stimulation and constant access to hard but interesting problems - Combination of analytically and quantitatively smart but humble peers - Culture is paramount and the company puts a high value to maintaining great culture - Top of the line benefits and compensation

Cons

- Company is growing through an inflection point and expansion - so expected kinks as it navigates through that but nothing serious
