Good, not great

Pros

good time off, health, vision, and dental, job is sales oriented with rewarding operations but is EXTREMELY dependent on geographic location. This leads to poorly construed incentive pay structure for certain areas - PICK YOUR BRANCH PRECISELY / WISELY.

Cons

401k match is HORRIBLE with 1-time annual lump payments in February of the following year at a 5% rate - terrible and senior management knows this irresponsible to employees considering the economic/financial power at the firm.

Pros

Looks good on a resume

Cons

The red tape is really mind blowing, and in my opinion and experience - the more you are there, the more your job becomes administrative and away from your core job function. I used to be a top tech recruiter, but now me and most of my colleagues are basically glorified data administrators in my immediate experience over several years here, Nd what I’ve seen with others Leadership is out of touch, outdated, and way too interested in data for the appearance of having data vs. actually performing a job or using that data to action things or influence change with the business, in my opinion Pay is not as competitive as they make it seem, both to internal employees and external candidates. The brand name is heavily used to sell the opportunity If you are in tech recruiting, be prepared to work 50-70 hours a week, if you work in the US... Very micromanaged Diversity and inclusion programs are heavy in appearance, but the business is not held accountable in my experience Strong performance is seemingly not rewarded beyond being told to be happy you have the job, based on my experience and my coworkers in 2020 going into 2021, similar with 2019, 2018 and previous years too

Pros

- Slightly above average pay compared to most jobs you'd be able to land in your early 20s. But ultimately crappy pay compared to IB. - You'll develop tough skin and the ability to work very long hours without rest. Or at least get really good at pretending you are working hard. - 401k match and solid healthcare benefits. - Good brand to have on your resume in order to land a job somewhere better.

Cons

- Uptight work environment, extremely bureaucratic and conservative. Boldness and creativity is not rewarded here. - Culture of fear - you are constantly being micro-managed and never left alone even on the weekends. Will be expected to answer emails even at 2AM. - Most analysts are afraid to take vacation or to leave the office before the sun sets even if they are finished with all their work for the day. Management will guilt-trip you into thinking you're lazy otherwise. - I am convinced this organization breeds sociopaths. You are constantly critiqued on your "perceived performance" instead of the actual contributions you are making to your team.
