Pros

Reputable company so looks good on your Cv. Good team to work with, opportunity to get promoted if you get on with people and are seen to be working hard.

Cons

Poor training (as you shadow a more experienced ember of staff so if they aren't sure How To do it then you aren't either) which leads to errors and salary is average compared to other fund administrators. Repititve work day in day out. Don't engage in staff retention until someone hands in there notice.

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.
