Vantaggi
Mission driven organization that employs some of the most passionate and hard-working individuals in the financial services industry. These are the people that make the world a better place, for everyone. I've learned a great deal from my colleagues and their enthusiasm for the mission is contagious. CFSI also has some swanky offices, while simultaneously providing you the flexibility to work remotely when needed. They provide market compensation, despite being a young organization.
Svantaggi
For a progressive organization with female leadership, that often speaks of doing the right thing, I was appalled to learn that CFSI's maternity leave benefits for full-time employees are virtually non-existent. Their maternity leave policy pales in comparison to comparable financial organizations which offer 8-12 weeks of paid leave, with 100% pay. I have trouble reconciling CFSI's maternity policy, given that they provide senior executives with the ability to take a 12-weeks of sabbatical -- with pay. Employees at CFSI hoped for a revamped maternity policy, but these hopes were dashed after a former executive of Planned Parenthood was hired and no action was taken on this important issue. If you're considering starting or growing your family, CFSI is not conducive.
