Pros

Benefits stretch pretty wide and if you are willing to look for them, definitely help in the long run. Flexibility during Covid helped reshaped the mentality that physical office presence was needed, but is a work in progress and not fully fleshed out Stock plan, generous 401k

Cons

A pretty big disparity between those at the top and those at the bottom. This extends across all levels: pay, benefits, support, and opportunity for advancement. Those at the bottom seem to be held to a different standard which includes heavy micromanagement and overwork. You can guarantee if you’re too slow you’ll hear about it, however management/leaders are not held accountable when they take months to implement a small change or address an issue. Metrics drive everything to an infuriating degree to where that’s all I felt I was good for, killing my want to stay with the firm

Pros

Total compensation is competitive, new hires are eager to jump in, and it seems like a company strategy is finally coming together. Things continue to move slowly though because projects from the loudest voice or most tenured associates tend to get prioritized and throw off critical investments into fixing data, process, and tech debt issues to mature our ability to market like it’s 2026 instead of 2016.

Cons

Too many bottlenecks to execution; If you’re seeking to make a meaningful impact, don’t expect it fast. Expect to navigate uncertainty while the company claims to help clients do this for their portfolios instead of helping associates to help clients — This is branded fluff for leadership without clear direction, driving teams to waste too much time and energy in meetings and boring demo decks every month to make being busy look like value by being the loudest voice, which is what you’ll notice many of the most tenured associates do best. Slides might look pretty but AI doesn’t make sense of this noise and clients don’t benefit from all the hours spent in PowerPoint. Unclear ownership leads to internal redundancies or team friction, on top of the inconsistent documentation and fragmented data siloes that are ironically impeding readiness for AI mandates coming from the CEO.
