Pros

Most people are nice except for my boss

Cons

My boss is the worst. She is super micromanaging, talks you down all the time, doesn't give constructive feedback and doesn't promote work life balance. She doesn't care about the good work that you did and only focuses on your negative sides or only looks at how late you stay at work (she herself doesn't ever leave her desk, even during lunch, so you feel bad for taking lunch break). My worst decision ever to join this firm.

Pros

Lots of client exposure Learning unique products Aladdin

Cons

Too much politics in the team. Nobody stays for more than 2 years. Also they like you as long as you do their job. The moment you ask for a raise or a change they immediately intentionally make your life difficult
