Pros

The company is run by owners rather than professional managers and they care more about the company because it is their company. The benefits are the best I have ever seen. The company values loyalty, rewards hard good work, and is generally a meritocracy. The level of politics is relatively low compared to many big companies.

Cons

Working out in the open on long trading desks takes some getting used to. The is no privacy. Because the firm is a partnership, the senior managers can be a bit rough around the edges sometimes, even when they are being fair.
