Pros

Allyship amongst colleagues. Accessible extracurricular events and workshops ONLY if the manager approves and bandwidth on top of a heavy workload. With the right manager, a career can take off exponentially.

Cons

Parent company growing pains - uniting acquired entities and forming one unit Lack of management training and guidance Unclear protocol for career advancement It seems to be a favorite system for employee programs without a clear methodology. Technology is outdated - much patience is needed with IT. Depending on the region and hiring manager, pay is lucrative.

Pros

The NY location is close to Grand Central Station

Cons

Slow Canadian culture that finds it challenging to meet US regulatory standards. Executives play favorites and gaslight employees, if you voice your opinion, they either silence you or try to manage you out with exaggerated "performance issues"
