Great Place To Work; Steep Learning Curve; Grewt Diversity; Interesting Clients; Long Hours
Pros
Worked at the firm till Autumn 2013 when I left for the US to do my MSc. - Great place to work with lots of camaraderie among staff - senior consultants are approachable and keen to help you grow career-wise. Lots and lots of learning to do - the office has a distinct vibe - makes you feel like your always at the brink of a new discovery everytime you walk into office - unbelievable cultural diversity. Can still remember how surprised I was to walk ktn the office on the first day to find people from Africa, Asia and Europe all reporting into a Colombian manager
Cons
- long working hours. The pizza and health breaks help but still, working from 9 to 9 on most days in the week has an effect on your social life - no internship program for those college graduates keen on getting hands-on experience on this new frontier in financial services - the small and niche size of the firm makes it a prime takeover target for large financial firms and even Telcos - resource centre is mainly full of technical resources and periodicals only. Perhaps consider some comics and maybe even a few movies
