Business Outlook

Pros

good benefits, opportunity to travel and use languages, good to learn about finance if you do not come from a finance background, reasonable hours,

Cons

unchallenging, unprofessional management, not meritocratic - more a case of being in the right place at the right time, no time for management due to relentless targets

Pros

Fun and bright environment, interesting pantry setup to foster communication and "innovation"?! Open offie to simulate banking experience, flat hierarchy (too flat).

Cons

Poor pay, no real management/promotions structure, only prvide breakfast (no lunch?), repetitive, slow paced. I am biased because I should be in a bank instead.

Pros

Good company to work for if you are in the right department. Lot's of young and good looking women. A playground if you are single.

Cons

GTEC, ADSK, and GCUS are perhaps the worst departments in the company. Workforce is generally young and immature. However, there are some really smart and ambitious people working there.
