Pros
Company’s priority is the growth and professional development of its employees. It truly cares about its people and provides a lot of support and training to develop them. From day 1 the job provides a very wide range of opportunities to learn valuable skills - SAS programming, client communication, project management for many Fortune 100 companies, SBC accounting, etc. Work is challenging but rewarding. Completing large projects and solving complex problems results in a sense of accomplishment. Equity Methods has a good culture and all employees are extremely smart! Office atmosphere is quite fun and social! Work hours can get up to 60 only during busy times, but the long-term average per week is reasonable (in the 50s).
Cons
Flexibility is required; There is a lot to learn and you can grow very fast by being involved in challenging and interesting projects, but sometimes this means irregular work hours and push yourself out of the comfort zone. Sometimes calls with clients can be very early in the mornings or late at night. Large corporations have offices offices around the world – Switzerland, Singapore, Brazil, Russia, etc. and scheduling calls with international people can require odd meeting times.
