Pros

The company offers a lot of opportunities for growth in the areas of finance, leadership, and sales. There really is a team environment where people help each other and that also helps to create a collaborative atmosphere for learning. The leaders are genuine and care a lot about the team. The company does have values that they talk about a lot and they are promoted and reflected in the ways it operates. It is a young company, but that also creates more opportunity for new people to grow faster and step in and have an immediate impact.

Cons

This job is definitely not for everyone. Although you are part of a team and there is a lot of support to help you succeed, your success comes down to your individual efforts and sometimes it can feel like those efforts are in vein. Yes, this is a job in finance, but it is also in sales...and in sales you can work, but not always see an immediate result, and that can be very frustrating. I think that someone should really evaluate if the reward is worth the risk of the frustrations that sales can bring. It’s hard to know that for sure going into something and sometimes people figure it out after they get into it and experience it...and that can be hard. This is not a job where you get paid just for trying and that is one of the big reasons its not for everyone.

Pros

The company provides great tools to go and get clients, and encourages you to take action. They want you to succeed but they wont do it for you. There is literally no ceiling and the more you hustle, the more you will be rewarded. If you view this as a stepping stone, you will be sorely disappointed

Cons

There could be a better focus on seeking great. So many things 49 does is really good, but I believe we could achieve greatness in a lot of areas we currently aren't chasing like we should. If our clients win more, we will too
