Pros
Good beaches nearby if you work in the Florida office and you get to wear flip flops at the office
Cons
Terrible atmosphere in the Boston office.
Very political bureaucracy, and "good old boys" culture.
Enormous turnover among sales
No one in management has produced research, sold financial services, or managed money. Every initiative they take fails miserably. Rather than take any responsibility, management usually fires a couple salespeople and comes up with another failed business idea, like "the data product".
Good strategists (head of commodities, ETFs, Europe) have left and not been replaced. The rest are interviewing or waiting for retirement. Many are stuck there and just hope to draw their paychecks until the place goes bust.
Management puts insane sales targets, provides no training, and does not care about the product: sales' jobs is to force good customers to accept crazy price hikes every year. Some clients still pay because Ned and Tim had good calls over the years, but this place is done when they retire.
