Complex, inefficient organization.

Pros

Can’t think of any pros except maybe work life balance

Cons

1. No client centricity - it would be an understatement to say “no client centricity”. There’s disrespect for clients, no regard for their feedback and absolutely no focus on clients while making product or service decisions 2. Complexities in everything for no reason - they have taken a simple business model and over engineered it to an extent that they are trapped in it themselves. Clients don’t understand the business model anymore. Employees find it tough to deliver because of unthoughtful, illogical programs thrown at them every now and then. 3. Decisions are made to suit leadership whims vs logic - Leaders are biased and in a race to impress the OC and CEO. People are afraid to disagreeing with leaders. It’s not appreciated. Frankly, they are focused on solving problems that are not even real. They throw unnecessary collaterals at clients without thinking if they add any value 4. Lack of diversity in leadership and any investment in developing future leaders

Pros

Resources abound to help you succeed

Cons

Constant inspection, oversight and micromanagement sucks life and excitement out of the good work we do and makes selling a grind. Management and executive team plays on the edge of the ethical playing field at the expense of loyal employees and customers in order to make numbers and hit company metrics. Minimal opportunities for growth.

Pros

High pay, and some great analyst team members

Cons

Middle management heavy, driven by measurement of internal metrics. Oddly, not always very client-centric.
