Pros

Great resume booster for those in the financial/ accounting fields as the Company provides hands on experience for sophomores (though i recommend a big four accounting firm or nationwide wide bank for juniors). Interns are taught to do the exact job of full time fund accounts (albeit interns handle fewer/ less complicated funds). In addition, the Company thoroughly attempted to create open channels of communication and foster that team environment, though often times, the work is meant for individuals.

Cons

Interns were randomly assigned positions within the department without a choice or option to rotate.

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

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
