-poor work from home policy and horrible maternity leave -management is borderline abusive to employees and multiple complaints have been made about abusive behavior but HR turns a blind eye -highly political for such a small company -managers often throw other departments and team members under the bus to save face -technology is stuck in the 80s and IT does not have the skills to modernize -lots of dead weight -most departments are overstaffed and underutilized -no innovation and no willingness to change -only suitable for "yes" man or woman

Pros

True culture of accountability starts at top. When you’ve worked for a large bureaucratic asset manager, VE culture is refreshing. If you’re lazy and unaccountable, you won’t enjoy

Cons

Would be nice to have a share of the success like equity or tracking stock.

Pros

HR is friendly and nice work with

Cons

The new manager take advantage of his title and don’t even know his accounting. He would call the auditor duirng busy time to ask who make up the affiliate in the footnote. Took him three days to review simple financial statement, didnt know the IRR formula or understand waterfall. Make excuse and get away with anything. Sign off financial statement with the incorrect NAV. He cant check without your formula. How can someone pretend review if they dont know what they doing. Only copy file then reformat and take the credit. The director don’t communicate with team on any update.
