Good learning opportunity Ok place to start your career It depends on the group that you're in but generally not heavy on overtime like most firms

Cons

Terrible pay, terrible pay, terrible pay! Turnover ratio is so high that the work is heavy on the employees that stayed

Pros

They only pro I can think of for this job is that it get's your foot into the financial industry.

Cons

Lack of communication from management, reliant almost entirely on emails. Training seldom reflect actual group specific tasks so you walk in pretty much unprepared to the job. If you change groups which often happens, what you learned in one seldom reflects what you will do in the next. What you learn is almost all arbitrary since the tasks that you preform require little to no principals of the subject, as to say the job is almost robotic. And one more thing, why do you need to print out so much paper!
