Pros

Young office culture, free parking garage, free gym access

Cons

As a new graduate, this role was an intense introduction to the professional world. I didn’t fully understand the level of complexity and pressure involved until I started. I later learned that the position typically hires experienced professionals, which makes sense given the high-risk, high-pressure environment and the steep learning curve. The expectation to quickly absorb a large amount of technical material while contributing immediately was overwhelming at times. For future candidates, I would recommend having prior experience or at least foundational knowledge in corporate actions processing to be set up for success in this role.
