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.

Poor health insurance, bonuses are basically non-existent. Basic US holidays are still work days. Limited room for growth unless someone above you leaves
