Pros

- Great place to join and perform if you know what you are doing - they trust you as an employee and have very nice freedom to explore and work as you please

Cons

- business is always first. (not really a con, and nothing personal)

Pros

Lots of opportunities within the Capital Market platform to approach the market, and room to change between teams / product groups. Decent pay and relatively decent hours compared to others.

Cons

Some MD's and equivalents have different management styles, so it is difficult to determine when you will get someone who is intense, overbearing, or over demanding, or someone who is reasonable and patient, or someone who is a low-growth, low-activity originator.

Pros

Friendly and support colleagues within the compliance teams, nice campus

Cons

The bank is running the show for the broker dealer. Zero tone from the top equates to a highly ineffective compliance program folks! It’s like working in the wild Wild West here.
