Senior Manager
Pros: 1.Learning opportunities, including transfer within departments and global mobility.  
2. You get to work with young people or people of the same generation.  
3.Try hard to organise activities to reward people during the off peak.
Cons: 1. Reward is very not aligned to effort.  I completed twice the portfolio but was given $1k more as a reward.  I was also not awarded being an excellent performer as i did average for a small client and I was already exhausted by then, even though I already spoke up that I am burnt but they don’t listen.  End up my performance for the last job of the year, which is a small job, had the biggest say in my performance. 

2. No one (and I mean the senior partners) wants to be responsible when things look like going down the drain (although they were involved right at the beginning) but everyone wants a slice when things start to pick up.  No doubt people will say this is common every where, but these people are too senior that it was unbelievable.

3. Attrition rate is high.  Can never seem to address the root cause even though the firm received best employer award year on year.

4. Most of the times, they only react when people tender their resignation.  But yet they claim that they know and understand what’s happening on the ground.
