Vantaggi
Ares is a great firm beyond this group. I highly encourage people to seek out roles across the Ares platform outside this group.
Svantaggi
If you’re reading this, don’t make the mistake of joining this group. Ares is a great firm, but this team is an absolute mess. Poor leadership, no skill development, and a dead-end role. Do not be fooled by the job description or possibility for internal opportunities. ***The only people who stay are the ones who can’t leave.*** • No Skill Development: The work is mindless data entry with no real analysis or learning. You’ll gain no transferable skills. • Disorganized & Poorly Managed: Leadership is out of touch, workflow is chaotic, and there’s no real structure or direction. A revolving door of chaos. • Toxic & Fear-Driven Culture: Promotions are based on compliance, not competence. Mid-levels are too scared to push back on bad decisions and too incompetent to make an impact. • Weak Team, Weaker Work Product: Most team members lack basic technical skills (Excel, PPT, etc.). I could have done this job in middle school. This group *WILL* be automated. Ares should bring in consultants to offshore / deprecate this function. • No Future Here: The idea that this role leads to growth or better opportunities is a myth. ***The only people who stay are the ones who can’t leave.***
