Pros

People / culture - Despite his passing, the firm still has culture rooted in the Phil Purcell "No a**holes" rule. I've found people to be collaborative, customer-first and teamwork-oriented

Cons

This is not the top bulge-bracket of the investment world, not does the firm aspire to be. Baird may not be the place for you if you wish to climb to the top of the Wall Street hierarchy and see this as a stepping-stone.
