Good to build financial foundation
Pros: Working at a large financial foundation provides exposure to various different teams and departments. Specifically for product controllers, it is a great way to build computer skills (Excel) which becomes something you can take with you no matter where your career takes you. The company as a whole focuses heavily on process improvement and efficiency which is also always appreciated. Internal opportunities is great given the size of the firm and the positions available.
Cons: While working at a large financial institution is great to build exposure, it can also mean that the work that you do can be extremely narrow/specialized as well as being repetitive.
