Pros

The employees are friendly and the management helpful. They have nice offices located around Boston and the hiring process is easier, but impersonal.

Cons

I was an mutual fund accountant. It was pretty boring, with little variation in day-to-day tasks. It seems that they hire a bunch of new fund accountants several times a year so the process can seem pretty anonymous.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
