Pros

Expensive dinners and drinks on the company

Cons

- Flat hierarchy, no form of promotion to next level even for star performers - A large part of entertaining is pegged to one's performance. Bosses strongly encourage bringing the traders out for lavish dinners and drinks, a lot of sleaze involved. - Year end bonuses issued out in the form of employee options/stocks, when monetary incentives are always preferred. These stocks are not movable when employee leaves company WIN-WIN for company.
