Pros

Laid back environment, mostly young working professionals, quite routine once you get used to the software, lots of free time depending on the group/assigned funds

Cons

Promotions depend entirely on the group. The associate 2 in your group has to be promoted or moved to another group before you can be promoted. You may have to ask for a raise/promotion to get the ball rolling.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
