Pros

Get to work with scholars in the field, academicians from top universities

Cons

The role should be called Admin associate instead of Research Associate - you are forced to waste your time doing useless things that can be given to a much lower skilled person. The only way to move up is to suck up to a few seniors. No appreciation for talent. There is no feeling of camaraderie among people. Poor culture. Senior managers will literally bully you. And once you are on field, expect to get zero support from office. They are trying to teach finance to the world and their own finances are always screwed up

Pros

Good network with international research organisation. Some RAs are good.

Cons

Complete and utter lack of leadership. The company lacks direction from the top and middle management. Lack of good projects leads to underutilisation of good talent. There is no plan of action or a projected plan. Some are over-worked while some have no work at all. Absolutely no communication exists between the senior management and the employees. There is no synergy in terms of mission.
