Pros
Ability to interact with a strong team Pay is high relative to public sector. Smart, urbane colleagues. Great reputation. 10 weeks paternity leave. Can be intellectually stimulating.
Cons
The business model is strange. It’s a conflict of ethics. You are paid by those you rate. Yet for some reason the market accepts your ratings. I can’t explain it. They pay lip service to ethics but believe me they know on which side their bread is buttered. You simply cannot expect a billion dollar company with 20% profit margins to be angelic. If you do, I have a bridge just right for you. If it’s not working out they will drop you like a hot potato and literally throw you out of the door. What happened to loyalty? Pay is small relative to Wall Street.
