Pros

My coworkers are helpful and experienced, and the program I was hired into set each new employee up with a mentor who has several years of experience in the company. There are many training opportunities available for those wanting to further their education on internal programs as well as broad overviews of the industry. Upper management is very interested in feedback.

Cons

The hiring process needs work; there was a huge gap between the job I accepted and the work I actually do. At my current position there is little internal mobility or opportunity for promotion, which is a problem for me as this is my first job out of college. Communication between departments can be tense, which causes a problem when a client needs something done urgently.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
