Great entry point to elite finance, but pay is low

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good way to get your foot in the door in elite financial institutions. Your success is dependent on how hard you work. Management will notice the hard workers and put you in front of more competitive desirable employers. Benefits are very good.

Cons

The pay is unfortunate. If you have friends/family in expensive areas where there are lots of employers, that'll equate to more higher quality opportunities. Relocation can be tricky. They'll give limited reimbursement and a bonus (that gets taxed), be good at planning, because the assistance isn't generous. Leaving the company early can lead to financial consequences--they can sue you for the training costs--which can be scary to imagine if you don't get placed.

Business Outlook

Pros

I managed to survive at the company long enough to find a role elsewhere

Cons

Received awful training with the constant threat that we’d get let go if we didn’t perform well enough during training. Had to work a lot of unpaid overtime to keep up, and had to help friends because the training wasn’t good enough and they almost lost the role because of that I know multiple people who were made redundant for literally no reason with no warning. They reached a point they were making a colleague redundant a day
