Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Senior Associate
Pros: Some of the colleagues are very talented and open to sharing ideas with each other. You can definitely learn something from them.
Cons: Team culture used to be great and senior members of the team had close relationships with juniors, but this has changed as the team grows in size. Favouritism dominates staff performance evaluation now and people working on less profitable engagements are not being valued despite their tough work.

Quality of new joiners have been declining in terms of capability and working attitude. This might be due to the need of catching up with the headcount growth. The recruitment process seem to be less stringent as some of the new staff who join as a mid-senior member of team do not possess the required knowledge and experience to impose positive effects to the team. Some new joiners might even procrastinate which cause existing staff to take up extra workload. Management does not react timely enough to address such issue.
