Pros

Great teams, value initiative and opinions, great place for entrepreneurs, awesome place to build a personal network, colleagues have top tier backgrounds from places outside just banking.

Cons

Compensation is mostly below industry averages, a little too much work life balance for people early in their careers, no difference in job responsibility for various junior-mid level positions.

Pros

Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

Cons

Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

Pros

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
