Pros
Incredible peer group. It’s like the kids from all your honors programs in one place. Yet at Pariveda they’re all cool, interesting, and collaborative.
The environment is set up so people are not in competition with each other. You earn promotion on your merits and a transparent framework.
If you dedicate yourself, there is no place where you can grow faster than at Pariveda.
Cons
The personal demands can be high. It’s not a “60 hours a week” high. More like: intensely focusing on personal growth, always seeking to learn, helping others grow is an intense mindset. Plus, you look around and the baseline bar is really high
Pariveda is in a state of change. That change is bringing some chaos and morale issues.
