Pros

Competitive pay and great benefits. In general, a good working environment. A lot of bright, capable, engaging people. Great place for co-op/intern to learn about corporate finance.

Cons

Though supportive of work/life balance, work demands seem especially high within the finance division. During financial closes, not unusual to be working until midnight depending on your position. A lot of focus on compliance issues. Promotion/upward movement seem to be based more around perceptions and how you do things, rather than your tangible accomplishments.

Pros

The colleagues I worked with were great, friendly, helpful. Because the colleagues were great, I'd love to work there full-time, but this was a short contract.

Cons

The supervisor I was ultimately working for had never worked in digital-related products, in which I had decades of experience. He seemed to be unaware of what every colleague would be telling me (I was interviewing colleagues using a software the manager was intending to propose use for firm-wide). Both the colleagues I interviewed, and the internal technical staff I was speaking with knew the project would not function as he seemed intent on ... forcing(?) it do so. I gave him the resulting report of its users' feedback, and I was finished with my contract. He had gone through 2 other women in this same role, already. And he hired a male after me who delivered esentially the same results. Because I wasn't there, I have no idea of the dream outcome this manager attained, or switched to, later.
