Great place to start your career

Pros

-Lots of responsibility from an early stage: within 3 months at the company you have direct client interactions and are tasked with building a book of business. -Great colleagues: young, motivated, energetic. -Good working environment: we are given a very high level of autonomy considering how early we are in our careers. I can't imagine another place where entry level employees receive so much freedom to accomplish their tasks. -Very fast progression: if you delivery on your work and are mature and professional, management takes notice. -Management: I have no idea who is writing the reviews below saying Management sucks??? The CEO, COO and Head of Americas are all super impressive and, more to the point, straightforward with the Research floor.

Cons

-The work itself can get repetitive pretty quickly. I'm sure that's why Management is working to promote this as a 2-year analyst program to jump start your career - they know there is a shelf-life. -Target-driven: it's a business that has growth targets, so you will have monthly targets. This doesn't bother me, but I can see how it's not for everyone.

Run By Sociopaths

Pros

Peers are friendly, funny, and for the most part hard-working Depending on the team and role, compensation and work-life balance can be great

Cons

Compensation and work-life balance can be bad if you are on a bad team, or worse, Spotlight. It is unbelievable how poorly managed this company is. Senior management abide by stale company policies last seen in the McCarthy era, and with an equal degree of paranoia. Expect constant surveillance and questioning of everything you do, as senior management does not trust anyone, probably because of how untrustworthy they themselves are. They prioritize control and power over actual growth and profitability of the company, and promotions reflect this. They worship financiers because they are not intelligent enough to succeed in finance themselves. The fact is, this is a company that preys on young people who don't know better, and deserve better. AVOID.
