Pros

Inflated title, you can call yourself the "head" of anything

Cons

Something is very wrong with the organisation. People are falling sick with long term illnesses and going on long medical leaves. Lay offs happening left and right. People are trying to quit because there is "no future in the company" One employee even passed away. People are struggling to cover each other and we are trying to sell services and products which we cant even fulfil. The employee survey was so bad that they just went straight to the focus group to try to fix the poor employee morale. Product Managers are extremely out of touch with the market and very lazy. People are backstabbing each other and insulting each other based on looks and appearances. The level of politics among the senior and middle management is astounding and so immature. The corporate culture is so toxic, they pride themselves as smarter than their simple minded customers and overcharging them is seen as an achievement.

Pros

- Good company wide culture (see notes below on ratings specific culture) good people - Great work life balance (especially for finance in NYC) - Opportunity to learn from most of the c-suite - If you want the return offer you can usually get it (only know one person from my year who wanted one and didn't get one). - The ratings intern program is essentially gauging if your competent to extend a return offer. You don't actually do much work for your team.

Cons

- Can't touch anything an actual associate does because of regulations in industry (don't get exposure with what you'll actually be doing full time). - Because you can't touch anything you basically spend the entire summer being talked at by senior analysts (learned a ton but can get repetitive). - Hybrid schedule is only really adhered to by associates on your team, so the office feels deserted at times. The seniors don't come into the office much. The ratings floors (separate from the rest of the business) have a stale and silent feeling. - Because you don't really do much for your team it's hard to create relationships with them. - Your capstone project can be on a completely different industry then the one you're assigned to.
