The opportunity to ask my own questions and connect with the Hiring Leaders
When I feel valued and accomplished in my role. I'm even more excited when there are opportunities that I qualify for.
The individuals that work for the firm can be awesome overall. However, if truthfully providing feedback regarding improvement needed in our departments - your value decreases and you are overlooked.
There should be more realistic opportunities for minorities to explore leadership roles within the firm. This is clearly not the case and the pay scale differs greatly between whites and black associates at the firm.
There is often cross training or cross development for specific roles within the firm; however there is no additional compensation for being forcibly moved into multiple roles. Regardless of your skillset or level of experience. It is more common to see your white colleague promoted.
We (the associates) make it the best that we can working with each other. However, the nationwide branches that we support belittle and verbally abuse us often. This has been brought to the attention of the firm on multiple occasion. Many have exited the firm as a result of the disregard.
