Pros

There is nothing positive about this place.

Cons

Too many chiefs. No accountability and they fee their clients to death. No one wants to take ownership of anything and management doesn’t have a clue what is going on. The systems are old and getting things done at this firm is like watching paint dry. Every single thing at this firm needs to be approved by legal which totally negates the purpose of compliance. Managers couldn’t careless about your career progression. It was one of the most depressing places to work. Current employees are jumping ship at a rapid rate because this firm is poorly run. I wouldn’t recommend this firm to my worst enemy and I would tell clients to seek other financial firms to save themselves money and time.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
