Pros

Generally, work expectations are very reasonable. For those who wish to move internally, there are better-than-average opportunities. The Bernstein private client group has a good reputation.

Cons

There are many who feel that AllianceBernstein has lost its touch. The investments have performed horribly and the ouster of CEO Lew Sanders have lowered the confidence investors have in the company.

Pros

colleagues, I've met some really great people to keep in touch with as well as work with throughout my time there

Cons

tracking for moving up is pretty low and not guided well. people who have potential don't necessarily get the recognition they deserve even if they put themselves out there.

Pros

Great brand name and some really smart people for sure Access to top notch research from the sell-side analysts Great food in cafeteria, convenient central location close to train network Can eat lunch in your office! Fairly good flex-time options, if need be Good exit options, when you have spent a few years in this firm

Cons

Limited growth, if you do not belong to the old boys club Low employee morale, compounded by gray walls Lack of meaningful diversity in the workplace Lack of an international focus, much of the work is domestic and that explains the inherent geographical risk
