Pros
Tons of learning opportunities. It's a great place if you're into markets, tech, or just want to understand how the finance world works from the inside. You’ll get exposure to a lot more than just what’s in your job description. You get out what you put in. If you’re driven and don’t wait for someone to tell you what to do, you can grow really fast here. Initiative is noticed and rewarded. Direct access to decision-makers. You’re not buried under layers of middle management. If you have a good idea and can back it up, people will actually listen. Feels like building something. The company is evolving — new tools, new directions, new roles. It's exciting (and chaotic), but you feel like your work has an impact.
Cons
Not for coasters. If you're expecting super structured onboarding, hand-holding, or 9-to-5 with low pressure — this isn't that. You have to manage your own time and results. Growing company = growing pains. Things change fast and sometimes info doesn’t flow perfectly. You might get frustrated with unclear processes or priorities.
