Pros

Flexible yet demanding work environment. You will definitely learn on the job, but it will be the hard way. If you have what it takes to drive revenue growth for your producers, you will be rewarded with comp and career advancement. If you are young and hungry to learn, this is the place to get your feet wet as a recent college grad. Learn what you can, make connections and get hired by a firm where career advancement is possible for the average non-producing associate.

Cons

Must be a self-starter, highly motivated, resilient and an a*& kisser to have any chance to advance. Management rewards the few standouts very well, but the average worker has little opportunity for career advancement. Be prepared to get the run around about compensation unless you have the talent to get on the fast track. Overall, you can get paid more for much less stress elsewhere.

Pros

A true “team effort” environment. I think it really depends on who your team lead is and the dynamic of the group you work with. You will get a ton of experience fine tuning skills as they provide constant trainings and resources to learn. Decent pay when compared to competitor companies and great 401k plan. Plenty of company and marketing events. Hybrid work is great. Again to preface, who you work with can make or break the atmosphere, but everyone I’ve met has been extremely nice and willing to help. Opportunities to grow within the company.

Cons

Health benefits could be better. Company is really pushing new business and there can be a lot of work and last minute fires to put out that can feel daunting. There have been quite a few times I’ve worked late into the night to get things wrapped up. You need to self organize or things can easily fall through the cracks very quickly. A lot of meetings that can take up a majority of your day - leaving less time to get actual work done.
