Pros

Remote Work Flexibility: The option to work from home is a significant advantage if you live further away from the office, allowing for some degree of flexibility. Job Security: There’s enough work and no immediate sight of layoffs, providing a sense of job stability. Company Growth: The company is expanding, which could present future opportunities. Perks: Some additional perks are offered, such as health benefits and occasional team events, which can enhance the overall experience.

Cons

Poor Work-Life Balance: There is a strong lack of respect for personal time, leading to burnout. Unrealistic Deadlines: The workload often feels unmanageable, with expectations that are not aligned with the resources provided. Lack of Recognition: Hard work often goes unnoticed, with minimal opportunities for promotions or bonuses. Demoralizing Environment: The overall atmosphere can feel discouraging due to the high demands and low appreciation.

Pros

Excellent manager and team with streamlined processes. Benefits are greater than what I have seen in a majority of other businesses. The IT team generally moves very quick to resolve issues. HR/Hiring team was very quick and informative.

Cons

Only have two monitors when three would offer more efficiency. Although many tasks have SOPs and guides, some guides might not be updated (IE I found a guide that had the incorrect naming convention for a file). Any study materials needed to obtain relevant professional credentials are not covered by Ascensus. Obtaining relevant professional credentials also does not provide you with any bonus. You must wait a minimum of 12 months in your current position before wanting to change/pursue other job opportunities at Ascensus. The career ladder, at least in the Compliance team, seems rather narrow and limited.
