Pros
- Prior to AGC I spent two years at an analyst at a Mid-Market Investment Bank and another year at a PE outfit. What drew me in at a high-level was the c-suite access, direct communication with partners, a strong analyst core, impressive client base and an overall great group of people - Tight deal teams with high levels of transparency and the opportunity to get a ton of experience - Highest level of junior personnel responsibility I’ve seen in the industry - Work on behalf of impressive entrepreneurs, businesses and backers - Tons of room to grow and move up throughout the firm. If you’re ready to take on more, it’s given to you - Extremely strong comradery across the junior team; strong culture with weekly outings for analysts, trips (ski and beach), volunteering, sporting events and even the bullpen just stepping away for an hour to take a spin class or do a workout downtown
Cons
- High turnover of junior team, which is not uncommon in the industry and the firm is always actively working to address. Unfortunately, we seem to be a step or two behind and just need to get caught up
