Pros

Worked with intelligent people Great Benefits Obtained great professional experience Enhanced skills in paying attention to detail Lots of Training

Cons

- A nervy work environment meaning that assistants have to be careful, managers will head to upper management to complain about small things such as not answering the phone professionally to their standards -Stuffy work environment, preference for ivy league graduates and the tendency to look down at those who did not attend a top college -Assistants treated like second class. The review of an account manager and the words were valued rather than an assistant -You are watched consistently from the way you dress, sit, stand, how you work with clients -You cant even just do your work peacefully because you are expected to be mean or exert the strong business perception -Backstabbing people -Low morale and lack of growth opportunity for assistants - Culture is horrible. As a result there is a high turnover Don't chose this place to work if you don't have to
