Pros

Strong business model, smart colleagues, at forefront of thinking on key investment topics

Cons

You are a production unit, useful until value fully extracted (makes Goldman seem like a nunnery); company fails to live up to it's lofty aspirations of how employees are valued, horrid work-life balance. You are expected to squeeze all possible value from clients, while company squeezes all possible value from you. Not a place to build career.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We strive to be fully supportive of our employees and are keen to promote a healthy balance between work and personal life. We encourage anyone who feels they are not getting the support they need, or if they are finding their stress levels to be unmanageable to speak up - either to their manager or their local HR representative.
