Pros

Really liked a few of my coworkers. Job security

Cons

No one there cares about the work itself - not inspiring Few exit opportunities They do not reward merit. Structured and rigid promotions. Pay is low. Hard to live in NYC with it Micromanaged badly. Constantly checking over your shoulder for response time and have pointless meetings to make sure you are still working

Stay away! Just a sales job where you will learn nothing

Pros

While the cons heavily outweigh the pros, I'll say that one pro is that all associates are very young and mostly college grads, so it can be a great place to meet similar people

Cons

1) The associate role is just a sales role when you spend 90% of your day spamming people on Linkedin, via phone, and via email. You are trained to be a robot for most of the day and spend very little time actually "researching" and learning topics. 2) Hours are pretty bad- they're from 9 am - 6 pm but 6 pm usually ends up being 6:30 and maybe occasionally 7 pm. 3) The way things are organized feel extremely messy/disorganized- project managers just spam you with things to do all day and you are expected to always be responsive 4) Company feels >90% white people that all fit the same vibe of preppy private school graduates. As a POC, the lack of racial diversity is incredibly shocking.
