Great work life balance, low on learning and growth potential

Pros

Work culture is great, its a place you can work for and yet have a satisfactory after-work life. It exposes you to the working on a global brand, and gives you that leverage on your resume. There are no late night assignments, or restrictions on taking leaves.

Cons

Since the motto of the company of late has been cost cutting, most operations have shifted to India, Manila and other emerging markets. This has made the jobs in these markets more operational, after a point (I would say 1.5-2 years), you feel dejected of doing the same job with no innovation, no learning and limited geographical transition opportunities. The ESG team especially has been extremely poor in terms of employee growth and career development. It started as an a niche segment with ample learning opportunities but has now become a KPO model churning out data with all visionary decisions happening in the developed markets.

Very good culture Transparent decision making Independence in working Good knowledge sharing

Lateral shift can be a problem, since it is into limited financial services viz. Index and Analytics However, there is flexibility in the role one plays in the broader team.
