Business Outlook

Pros

I gained strong exposure to financial reporting and analysis, which helped me build a solid technical foundation. The role improved my attention to detail and ability to work with large sets of financial data under deadlines.

Cons

The role was more execution-focused, with limited involvement in strategic decision-making. There was less exposure to advanced financial modeling and business planning, which I am keen to develop further.
