Pros
I can't provide an extensive insight into my experience with RELI, primarily because I had limited interactions with RELI's leadership. My main focus was on working with the clients at the agency I was supporting. In terms of the positive aspects, I appreciated the substantial level of autonomy I had in my role. I had the freedom to approach my work in a way that suited me (within reasonable boundaries), and this aligns well with my work style. I thoroughly enjoyed the independence I had at RELI.
Cons
My primary concern is the substantial difference between the job I applied and interviewed for and the actual role I ended up performing. It's challenging to pinpoint responsibility for this discrepancy, whether it lies with RELI, the client I supported, or even with myself, as I could have been more critical during my job search. However, when I compare the initial job description I applied for with the actual list of responsibilities, they're incredibly different. I did take the initiative to seek out tasks that aligned more closely with the job description, and to a certain extent, I was successful in doing so. I was proactive in putting in a good effort to make an impact and provide value to our clients. Nonetheless, at its core, my position did not align with the role I initially applied for, leading to moments of frustration. Eventually, I found that the mismatch would prevent me from my personal career goals. Ultimately, this was the main reason in my decision to leave.
