Pros

The two pros were compensation and work-life balance. Even so, they were both average at best. There were no benefits with the compensation that made it stellar, just an average, somewhat competitive salary. Work-life balance was fine too, but I was working in tech and cannot speak to the experience of someone in the finance area.

Cons

No support, bad learning environment, no support for diverse employees. I was given a project that I had little experience with and was promised support to see it through. I not only received none but was criticized for both asking questions and not asking enough questions.

Advice to Management
