Pros

Decent salary not much else.

Cons

The micromanagement is extreme. People aren't trusted and are watched closely. Any mistake is highlighted to the entire team. While there is some good people in the team there is an overall blame culture and very little trust between team members. The head of HR is taken from the client facing side so has no HR experience. This inexperience makes it very hard to run a productive HR team. Very hard to make any positive change, in fact management is pushing HR to take away benefits etc. Little empathy for employees. No flexibility in terms of WFH.

Work and day can be tedious and feel repetitive, you must like talking to people all day, every day The hurdle performance tracking can be stressful for younger Associates Increasingly tighter competition as clients seek to find cheaper alternatives Exit opportunities can feel limited to account management/customer success work
