Pros

1. Good salary to MBA Grads 2. Good Office

Cons

1. Limited work scope and no consulting work. Create decks without any actionable items and insights 2. Senior managers expects that associate should finish 15 hours work in 8 hours and are inconsiderate about that. That don't works and thus we and juniors end up working more 3. Team in USA enjoys all the rights and backend work is done in India. One can say that India office is becoming IT office 4. Even in parties where people enjoys, we do get a loads of work suddenly, this made certain people work from party (WOP), which was a new experience for me

Pros

Strong culture and collaborative environment with smart, supportive colleagues. Admins are trusted partners and get exposure to senior leadership, which provides great learning opportunities. Compensation and benefits are competitive compared to similar roles.

Cons

Workload can be high, with admins often supporting multiple stakeholders while also providing backup coverage. Expectations can vary widely depending on the team, which can create inconsistency and pressure. Career growth paths are less structured and require a lot of self-direction. Work-life balance can be challenging at times, especially across time zones.
