Vantaggi

The pay was great. I really enjoyed the benefits. Also the people were nice. The hours were were not crazy.

Svantaggi

I had heard that technology was quick to get hired and fired. I was in finance so I figured I was safe. Make sure you are a top performer with automation processes and projects. I was surprised that I was let go without a warning.

Vantaggi

The colleagues in the office are generally very friendly and supportive.

Svantaggi

Compensation is significantly below market compared to other banks and hedge funds, particularly given the workload and expectations. Employees are typically required to start as temporary workers, earning hourly pay in the low $20s, with limited clarity around timeline or pathway to permanent roles. There is a noticeable lack of communication across the organization, which often leads to confusion and inefficiencies. Internal operations are disorganized, similar to an early-stage startup. Company-wide events and cross-department face daily challenges due to lack of planning and coordination Role expectations are not clearly defined. Work is frequently assigned from multiple departments outside the original job scope, and there is limited structure around workload management or compensation adjustments over time. Physical job expectations were not always aligned with professional attire standards. In some cases, employees were expected to handle and unbox numerous heavy deliveries daily while also maintaining formal dress requirements (such as dresses, skirts, and heels), which created practical challenges and discomfort.
