Pros

- Expose extensively to Private Equity and PEGs - Highly recommend to young professionals and of course recent graduates. And if you are a disciplined and self-motivated person, this is the place - You will learn a lot if you are willing to think more and contribute more - Highly transparent company, you got chance to know every aspects of a business - Two tips: try your best to see the big picture of the company and private equity business; try your best to have and keep curiosity

Cons

- Need to manage your own expenses if you are not from there - Need certain level of persistence and patient to keep doing it, especially during your first three months. Life could be a bit boring for some people. (Almost every position need to do some repetitive works though)
