Pros: The only pro is if a kind US SM (USI SMs are glorified Managers swimming in a small pond where no one can challenge them) takes you under their wing
Cons: This is one of the worst managed practices I have ever seen in my life-
1 . The appraisal system is so random that they will find weird excuses to not promote you or give you a raise.
2. They expect you to do unpaid labor in the form of Firm Initiatives after your regular project work- and yes you are required to perform really well at those to get any chances of a decent raise. Apparently, just being good at what you were hired to do is not good enough
3. Quality of work- USI team is treated like a backend dump. Expect work around secondary research mostly. Very limited to no client interface- in some cases they do not even introduce USI teams to clients or just call them out as our "research support"
