Pros

Overall, the people that work here are very helpful and knowledgable. Everyone works very hard to meet deadlines in the most accurate and efficient way.

Cons

Since there are deadlines and those are expected to be kept regardless of the current situation, it is difficult to train and be trained in a sufficient mannor. Lack of training in a deadline oriented environment creates high stress levels.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

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.
