Advisory Senior Associate
Pros: Lots of opportunity to advance and build a career. Surrounded by smart people who generally have a good respect for work-life balance. Exposure to a wide range of clients, especially in the financial services industry. The work environment is very supportive, and the firm encourages you to raise your hand with questions or concerns. A lot of cool training opportunities (both internal and external to the firm).
Cons: Can travel a lot, often with last minute notice (1-5 days). Hours can be long depending on staff resources and the time of year. Being in the FRM practice, you can end up doing a lot of audit work rather than true consulting work.
