Steep learning curve

Steep learning curve in the first year. Great Exposure to a lot of different tasks. A lot of support in terms of personal development. Great working environment with great mentorship opportunities within the team. (I can’t speak for the company as a whole on this point). There is inclusivity within the team and overall stellar teamwork. Not enough opportunities for promotion and progress

Pros: Steep learning curve and exposure
Cons: Long hours

Great for a starter/entry level

Big company name... Mediocre staff treatment. Extremely difficult to advance beyond senior status, have to wait for resignations for promotions. Great staff culture. High pressured due to data volumes.

Pros: Great learning curve in corporate environment
Cons: High pressured deadlines, no rewards for extra efforts, portfolio volume increase with no respective increase in renumeration
