Pros

Free lunch. Nice hotel to stay while doing business trips.

Cons

1. Toxic environment - A lot of finger-pointing. Your manager will push you under the bus just to cover his mistakes. 2. Solid performers are let go while abusive managers who don't have a clue are kept in the firm. 3. No clear directions. Management turnover is extremely high. Expect a new mandate every 2 weeks. What's worse, some new manangers come in and clean the house, firing people belonging to old regime. 4. Ken Griffin is still thinking he has a technology-driven meritocracy firm. This is a joke.
