Pros

It's definitely a great place to learn about the hedge fund industry.

Cons

-The culture has changed overnight after the salary freeze for the coming year(s). -Nobody within the office really cares to go the extra mile anymore. -Compensation is poor compared to competitors in the industry. -Management is decent at best; poor asset management as well as talent retention. -Bonuses were minimal due to bad bets.

Pros

Global firm name and reputation especially given current circumstances. Foreign-based firms are probably relatively safer and "more stable" than their US counterparts. This also translated to a greater diversity in the workplace.

Cons

Office was very standard and no-frills. Clear lack of team direction and togetherness with a very tight hierarchy adhered to. This often translated to lack of motivation and a lot of time being wasted waiting for team members. Lay-offs were also frequent and a lot of the work experience will revolve around which group you are being placed in, with some groups definitely having a stronger culture than others.

Pros

Deutsche bank has very flexible working schedules for working Moms including on-sight day care in time of emergency. Great benefits including healthcare, matching 401K, pension benefits, 4 week minimum vacation.

Cons

Frequent policy changes and restructuring and at times you'll be working towards a goal that is no longer a priority. We were told the bank is committed to a 25% ROI (Return on Equity) year over year which makes cost cutting a number one priority, but recently found out that the goal was considered unrealistic and we should focus on providing quality. Slow steady growth with quality is now the main goal.
