Pros
- Passionate colleagues from diverse backgrounds - Unique mission that is authentic - feel that you are really contributing to poverty alleviation, empowering female entrepreneurs and providing financial services to those that need it the most - Entrepreneurial culture - you tend to get more autonomy and a wider role scope than in larger asset managers - Senior management try to be engaged and seem to care about employees
Cons
- BlueOrchard is majority owned by Schroders, and the process of integrating certain functions/roles has, as with any integration, brought with it some challenges - The company has evolved and grown quite quickly in recent years, and certain support functions may not be well resourced enough to support sustainable growth Overall, BlueOrchard is a good place to work.
