Pros

Great momentum for the firm since the recession in 2008. Picked up many talent along the way and is a fast paced firm.

Cons

Lack of work life balance. Different position within the investment banking industry being in the middle market space. Working on improving the position though.

Pros

Supportive firm-wide culture; competitive pay; surrounded by some of the smartest people you'll ever meet.

Like most banking jobs, incredibly long hours. Group specific: culture can be poor / not well supported, poor organization / staffing at group level.
