      Pros

      Great to put on resume and learn the basics of the finance and mutual fund industry Network with mutual funds and other investment houses so you can make contacts to move on Great place to start a network of fellow finance professionals for the future Learn systems used by other financial firms

      Cons

      Lousy communication from managers regarding why things are done Too many qualified people leaving because of lousy communication and bias Too many unqualified people being promoted to wrong positions Very difficult to get time off under certain circumstances

      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.
