Pros

- you'd work with a lot of young, motivated people from great companies and top schools

Cons

- lack of growth - thinks they're at the top of the financial world when they're not - compensation isn't in line with market value - too corporate to a point where you feel suffocated - power politics > getting the job done

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

You get a paycheck (not much though)

Cons

Horrible work life balance. Zero company culture. Few career growth opportunities. This role is soon to be fully replaced by AI.
