      Pros

      Lots of new things to learn, i was hired as a mature hire and was given lot of responsability quickly, opportunity to get involved in lots of events, very friendly atmosphere

      Cons

      training given leaves a lot to be desired, training needs to be improved drastically, also data organisation throughout the company is apalling! one can spend months looking for data and still not find it. no overtime or days back for working on holidays/weekends is so demotivating

      Good pay and benefits, no work/life balance in trading

      Senior risk analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay is really high compared to banks and other companies in energy for risk. Salaries are at the top of the range and bonuses are usually in the 15 - 33% range depending on your grade. Benefits are really good (pension, 401K match, insurance). The people generally are very bright.

      Cons

      You probably will be doing the work of people at other companies that get paid a lot more than you. So you'll get high pay, but you'll be doing 2 jobs at least with one of those being little different than the next pay grade higher. That means you can be worked to death at times - not enough time to do both jobs in a day. Feels like an investment bank - everything is the #1 priority, everything is always put on the fast track, seems like you have a million bosses everywhere telling you what to do. Kind of flat organization which can leave you confused as to what you are supposed to be doing.
