Vantaggi

- Does operate more as a tech company than a financial services organization. - Interesting challenges to work on. - Enjoyed working with my peers.

Svantaggi

Performance management system is toxic. They use a stack ranking system where the lowest ~10% every year get let go. It creates an environment where co-workers are forced into a "me versus my peer" mentality when they should be collaborative. Whether you survive the cut or not often depends more on your managers ability to protect you than your actual performance. And even if you appear to be safe, it is still stressful as the process can take place at both the mid- and end-year. If you end up below the cut line, there are little to no options for you as you are also blocked from looking for something else in the company that may be a better fit.

Vantaggi

Pay can be decent compared to GovCon. Some people are a pleasure to work with. Other non-pay related incentives.

Svantaggi

Never heard more nonsensical topics during meetings; people sharing their sexual preferences, flaunting overly dramatic personal lifestyle decisions, diversity to the point of failure, etc. Hearing the term "white guilt" in a professional setting was, well, pretty unprofessional. Stack ranking for performance reviews is a mess. Someone has to have an "F" regardless of their performance because that is what their line of business is allotted. Be prepared to be held responsible for actions any Sr Leadership would just sweep under the rug under their own circumstances. If a manager doesn't like you, regardless of your productivity, you're toast unless you're able to find another LoB to support. HR / AR are just a check in the box and will most likely point you from one to the other and back again without resolving any issues. You'll find yourself curious as to what leadership does as they continue to scrape managerial responsibilities from their plate, to yours. Last but certainly not least; you may find yourself working hard on a project; nights and weekends, just in case that work life balance is feeling a little too perfect. Fret not, someone will surely assist in taking credit for the hard work you've put in. I'm sure none of these things will happen to you, though. Best of luck!
