Pros
Fantastic learning experience. Management puts a big emphasis on putting the proper systems in place to allow for growth. Education is also a big hallmark - hosting various networking events in the academic and professional community, writing white papers, etc. Jan takes a keen interest in employees' professional and personal growth. Friendly, collegial atmosphere.
Cons
Like all private lenders, growth is constrained by assets under management. Ongoing challenge to grow borrower base in lockstep with AUM and yet remain flexible as it relates to market conditions. When I was there there was less infrastructure, which led to the opportunity to see and do everything (good) but also some busywork (necessary evil).
