Not terrible, but poor leadership and few long-term prospects

Pros

Eze does a really good job hiring people. If you're staring in an entry-level or analyst position, you can be almost 100% sure that you'll really like your teammates and you'll have a good time working with them. Most of the managers at the bottom levels are very approachable, hard-working, and they'll go the extra mile to help you. You'll learn some generally applicable skills, but most of what you learn is specific to the industry and the company, and you'll spend a lot of time trying to remember the hundreds of bugs that you have to work around on a daily basis.

Cons

You'll be pressured in to working long hours because of the workload placed on you. This will be sold to you as a "work hard, play hard" culture. Eze isn't the worst place to spend a couple of years, but in that time it will take up a lot of your life, and you won't learn a ton that will benefit you outside of the small world of hedge fund tech. Other reviews have mentioned the reorganization. The company is going through a huge reorganization (really just following the playbook handed down by external consultants) which is mostly done, and it's not surprising that the same senior managers who are underqualified and overvalued are still all in charge of the critical departments. Everyone who has been around more than a couple years can see that the "leadership" of the company just tries to make themselves look good while they pass down half assed "plans" that haven't been thought out, to the lower level people. So, you should also expect to deal with a lot of work that doesn't makes sense or is made harder because someone two levels up decided it looked good on a report and doesn't know enough to realize or doesn't care that they are making a mess.

Don't work here unless desperate then get out

Pros

Some people genuinely care about others at the company and want to help you succeed (though they have zero power).

Cons

The company is run by executives who think we're still in the DotCom bust. Doesn't matter how many times employees bring up major attrition issues, pay problems, or frustrations with handling money saved over the pandemic - in company-wide meetings or 1-on-1s with your manager, they will refuse to acknowledge the problems until it slaps them in the face (aka when clients complain because they notice attrition and it affects their service). Pay has gotten worse and worse, but so has attrition so the the workload is only growing with zero incentive. I give it another 5-7 years before this company is just a bunch of managers + execs and entry level hires. Service is our big sell to clients and I've seen it get really bad as a result of this attrition. Clients will just leave Eze. Would not be surprised if someone at the top is leaving in the next 2 years and just temporarily pushing bottom line at any cost - consequences don't matter if you're not here in a few years, right? If you're any kind of minority, don't work here, you'll be exhausted. ERGs are only important when people are literally dying because of race and it's blasted all over the news. Employees even at the associate level spent weeks pushing execs just to even send out one email of support in light of the police brutality and BLM protests. Nothing was sent out in support of Asian communities when racial violence spiked during covid. Nothing was sent on either issue by the parent company, SS&C. Most people who ran ERGs are mostly gone at this point and there's few (if any) events or discussions to virtually attend. What's pathetic is 'Diversity' was the chosen company-wide focus coming out of employee surveys. The whole company is just an example of performative allyship, don't waste your time trying to change anything because people at the top clearly can't be bothered to put in the effort to learn and grow to be allies themselves, which they should be doing not as part of their job but because they are human beings. TLDR, this company has a problem with ignorant white bro culture, execs believe you would rather be overworked way past burnout in exchange for being paid in beer (which during the pandemic they don't even give so even by that logic, you're underpaid), and it's a sinking ship in terms of people leaving in masses

I would not refer my worst enemy to this place

Pros

Great coworkers who will prove invaluable when it comes to commiserating

Cons

Where to even begin? In order to exceed expectations you’ll have to be burnt out 24/7 and sacrifice countless hours of your personal life/weekends. That is if they like you. If they don’t and they see you working late nights or weekends, they’ll say it’s because you have poor time management skills. Do not expect your direct manager to advocate for you, or even be honest with you about your performance. If you’re a woman, expect sexist micro aggressions daily. Do not expect your mental well-being to be important to your manager or employer. Corporate has invested in a healthcare plan that has dismal mental wellness benefits. Expect an overall tone deafness from the top down as to how current events may impact minority employees - this is a company that sent out a quarterly financial earnings report literally while the US Capital was being stormed by insurgents and one that seems to feel that it doesn’t need to acknowledge a rise in AAPI hate/racism and how that impacts its many Asian employees. Raises are minimal - 1-3% annually. They’ll try to entice you with negligible bonuses and worthless stock options. If you somehow end up a favorite amongst management, you will likely thrive and advance quickly. Working here was nothing short of traumatic and I would strongly advise applicants/interviewees to straight up run in the opposite direction.
