Pros

Few nice people you meet along the way whether it’s in your team or the broader vertical

Cons

The management at the company (PE vertical specifically) is very poor and involves incompetent people with no prior leadership experience being promoted. This leads to the bad management at the company and is resulting in high employee turnover in general. Peers are also expected to work till late everyday and always be responsive to emails ( even during lunch time). Incredible amount of micromanagement even months or years into the role

Pros

Good entry-level opportunity with exposure to fast-paced, client-facing work. The company hires driven, sociable individuals and can be a strong starting point for building communication, prioritization, and execution skills in a high-performance environment.

Cons

High turnover and inconsistent management quality significantly impact the employee experience. Success is heavily dependent on your team lead and manager, with limited recourse if you’re placed under ineffective leadership. In my experience, poor communication, lack of emotional intelligence, and unclear expectations from management made it difficult to succeed and negatively affected day-to-day productivity. Internal processes around performance management and PTO lacked transparency. I was placed on a PIP and terminated shortly after (within a week) in a way that felt abrupt and not aligned with prior communication, which was initially framed as a discussion around pending PTO. There were also delays in PTO approvals, and I experienced issues with compensation adjustments following a promotion that required follow-up to resolve.
