Pros
- Hamilton is a well established name in the markets we serve, so it's unlikely that you'll ever talk to someone that isn't aware of the name and quality of product. - Family owned - this has it's pros and cons, but for Hamilton, this means they have full control over each and every decision and don't have to satisfy a bunch of corporate shareholders. - A lot of the people who work there have been there for a really long time - they have a wealth of Hamilton/industry knowledge and they deeply care about the success of the company and it's many divisions/products. This is helpful when trying to navigate internal politics/procedures, and develop relationships with key accounts.
Cons
- No mental health coverage. This seems crazy to me given how much mental health (and it's importance) is talked about these days. - Really big company - this can make it challenging to figure out who you need to talk to for various issues/concerns. - Several systems - hard to keep track of where certain information is and how often you should check each platform. - This was listed in the pros section, but it's also a con: many people have been there for a really long time. This can be intimidating when you're trying to learn who's who and how things are ran. If you join the Hamilton team, I would recommend you just observe everything going on around you for a couple of months before you share any of your own opinions or feelings about how things are/should be done.
