Good benefits, but leading nowhere

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- Relaxed work environment - Good exposure to the industry - Solid initial training Good benefits: - Health Care - Lunch - Coffee - Paid CFA study

Cons

- Poor pay (starts low and doesn't take off) - Limited avenues for career development. You will most likely have to jump companies to move roles - No stock options overseas - Lots of career lifers (makes it hard to move up) - Limited feeling of achievement or success. You can work hard or take it easy and probably end up in the same place. - As a consultant you are bottom of the pile; others benefit from your work more than you do
