Pros

Excellent location and culture, nice office, good benefits. Opportunities for people with entrepreneurial spirit.

Cons

People are expected to take responsibility of their own career progression so some may fall behind in their professional development or pigeonholed. Silo structure which makes it challenging to address issues on a central level and leads to constant unnecessary change. Lack of transparency. Activity Based working (no fixed desks)

Pros

Entrepreneur mindset that allows you to grow outside your specific box, if you choose. Supportive leadership in helping you achieve your goals.

Cons

Have to pull for growth, not handed to you. You have to be aggressive and ask for what you need.

there was little training for the intern position, so come prepared with some finance skills, just the basics
