Pros

- Good office location - Teaches you about hedge funds - Good first job to have

Cons

There is no effort to retain staff which has led to the firm promoting really bad quality employees who are more loyal than good. The good employees anyways seek to move out to a better firm. Training is very sub-standard. Non-corporate culture however the senior staff like to believe they are very important to the industry. Really this job needs no prior knowledge or training in finance or alternative investments.

Pros

Salary, canteen, free drinks, location

Cons

Toxic environment. Management are complete bullies. Harassing and bullying staff. 2 managers gang up on phone calls. Never by email as not to have it writing. Trying to intimidate and bully. Appears that staff are terrified of higher management. HR are useless and try to back out of agreed holidays (before joining) when you start working there. Inflexible with days in office. Their way or the high way. Horrible culture. Overtime expected at the drop of a hat.
