Pros

Four weeks vacation. Mostly, not all, good people here. Good entry into the Private Equity world for college graduates.

Cons

Promotion and salary freezes common, additional work assigned without additional resources. Expectations to work 80 hours a week. No training, left to figure things out on your own. Long hours, minimal pay, possible to have someone reporting to you with a higher salary. Management does not listen or care.

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.
