Pros

There is a potential for growth if you don't mind being demeaned, overworked and underpaid. If you are planning to use this job as a stepping stone onto to something better, it will give the experience you would need.

Cons

Salaries are too low for the amount of hours you work: You are expected to work from 8:30 - 6 (47.5 hours/week). However if you don't stay in the office late you will be bullied into working extra hours for no pay. The job is very demanding and if you make the slightest mistake you will be crucified for it, even if the mistake is not directly your fault. I am verbally abused regularly. Your responsibilities are not made clear giving the directors the opportunity to dump as much work as they possibly can on you. You are treated like a machine. If you complain to someone you are told to shut up and accept it.

Pros

Provides strong opportunities for travel, especially around conferences. The company makes a strong effort to onboard and support new employees and clients. There are many great colleagues to connect with and learn from.

Cons

My experience was that leadership lacked clear direction and timely decision-making. The culture felt transactional, with employee retention and development taking a back seat to short-term financial performance.
