Vantaggi
You get a chance at FF, that's a pro. Even if you have no work experience in the niche field they operate in - you get hired into a senior position. When you have no work experience at all, they'll hire you too - it seems like a great opportunity and they promise you the world. However, after a while you realise that these promises are pretty empty. You do learn a lot, not from senior management, but from the team. The Finchies are incredibly hard working and you learn endurance and perseverance, but no one can endure the icy atmosphere at FF, the lack of expectation management and the nonexistent work-life-balance for long.
Svantaggi
Senior management tends to over promise to clients, partners and their employees and as a result the Finchies continuously find themselves in uncomfortable situations that reflect badly on them. Long working hours, impossible tasks and unfeasible expectations aren't the exception, they're the rule. When you start at FF they promise you the world with a cherry on top. But if the CEO tells you, you'll be accepted for who you are at FF, that you're valued, that you'll work in an international, diverse team - that's empty words. The CEO has her own agenda, and will pursue it no matter the cost. Employee retention isn't a thing at FF - only when 10 people quit in one year (and bear in mind they only have 20-25 in total), the remaining employees will get promotions or a raise because senior management is scared they'll leave too. The office atmosphere is cold, stressful and scary. Especially because you know that senior management keeps over promising, and you'll find yourself failing or caught in embarrassing situations over and over again. The industry knows that FF is a sinking ship, as they've tried to grow way too fast. They've tasted success and wanted more, more, more without stopping to take a step back and reflect.
