Business Outlook

Pros

My work received recognition from my team. Little micromanagement from my FA. Research reports and assignments allowed me to learn a lot about economics, investment vehicles, and even the effects of politics on investments. The culture at my branch encouraged sharing and personal development.

Cons

Few growth opportunities within the firm (for interns at least). Management should create more opportunities for growth for existing employees.
