Business Outlook

Pros

One of the companies that offers a high salary straight out of undergrad, international exposure, an established mentorship program, and a clear organizational structure.

Cons

No work-life balance, working long hours, which seems doable at first, but once you do it, it really messed up your mental. Hence, if you realize this is not for you, qui fast before it's hard to leave
