Pros
• Opportunities for shadowing other team members are numerous; there is always a chance to learn more about something if you desire. • It is an independent environment with lots of freedom – you are truly the owner of your time and tasks. This is a great environment for a self-starter. • The mentorship in our department is incredible. Everyone is willing to share their own pieces of expertise and truly want everyone to grow as much as possible. If you are ever stuck on anything, there will always be people to help. • The overall team environment and culture is outstanding. The whole team actually cares about people as individuals and wants to know each other on a personal basis, not just inside the office walls. • You work with big name clients and that’s awesome for anyone’s resume.
Cons
• The new hire onboarding process should be more structured and thorough. There are often times seasoned employees expect new hires to understand something, but the new hires were never given the information (especially when it relates to administrative and technology related issues). • The organization of tasks is not on a good schedule. There is often time where team members aren’t doing anything because they are waiting for specific task details from a manager, but then they might get all of those details at once and be overwhelmed to get everything done by the deadline. • While general pay and benefits are good, the health insurance is expensive and there is no 401k matching.
