- mostly nice people at the bank
- great program to start your career and learn
- involvement in the teams
Cons
- lack of permanent positions available in venture lending
- pay is very below market
- large variances in workload between peers
- tough business to be in, will be losing the brand name soon
- you get exposure to the banking world
- ramp up period over the course of program
- technical skills
Cons
- you are stuck in the program with limited career flexibility
- salary is fixed and below market, no room for negotiation
- ADP managers are who you report to regardless of how limited time you actually spend with them. so your performance reviews are essentially baseless - you work directly with teams you rotate making ADP managers middle men.
- lots of gray areas in terms of where you can actually be placed or what next steps are.
