Pros

In the beginning of a major change in both senior and lower level management change the company is working to find the right balance for outsourcing many accounting functions to India. This has been difficult for many but new management will eventually turn thing around.

Cons

Losing a number of dedicated employees to transformation has been very difficult to both employees who have left as well as for those who have stayed.

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.
