Pluspunten

Flexibility. Work when best accommodates getting the job done. Work from home option. A lot of great people working there.

Minpunten

Longevity and great work ethic means you are taken for granted. Ascend says flexible unlimited PTO but good luck finding time to take it. Overworked is a theme with Ascend although managers are first to say "you should be taking some time off" yet you are loaded up with projects and trying to find time to complete is nearly impossible if you take time off. When merit increase time comes management finds a way to put you in a box with the majority giving a 2 or 2.5 percent raise. You don't get recognized for your contributions, especially if you are a cost to the company even though there is a great need for your position. Sorry, I am frustrated to have spent so much time and effort to do a great job which those who were not in management recognized but they aren't the ones who can give raises or bonuses.

If your kink is to create the bare bottom value PPTs with as little white space left over as possible with the same information presented 5X (no literally-my favorite was one classic (and typical) slide with a table of data; a callout box pointing to the table; A commentary bullet mentioning it again; the result also in the hallmark 4 line title of said slide; and the same result footnoted on the slide...oh yeah and all of this was just for a backup deck lol) then this is your dream job. the gig is literally Goundhog day just the same tedious boring low value formatting of spreadsheets day after day under extreme micromanagement. The dearth of analysis occurring in a Finance army this size is actually somewhat incredible. Case studies will be written about this place someday. The good news is that at some point you will wake up and realize you're not as worthless as Ascend finance will make you feel and channeling the power of that realization will fuel you to new heights and dreams.

Minpunten

Mouse jigglers aren't standard tech issue.
