Pros

Fun social events are scheduled on a regular basis both during and after work. There are committees devoted to promoting company culture and community service. Soft skills and business skills training sessions are offered regularly (although usually only to managers). The office location (For Point Channel) is fun and convenient.

Cons

There is a lack of experience among managers. Many managers are promoted because of seniority, not because of experience or leadership skills. New managers receive little or no training at all; as a result, management styles and expectations are inconsistent across teams, and employees suffer. The executive management team places a huge emphasis on how Eze values and promotes transparency and career growth, while in reality neither of these are employed consistently. The company still promotes a start-up mentality that is not realistic for a 400+ person company. This start-up mentality works when it's applied to the company culture (see the Pros section). However, when it comes to its products, the company consistently promises clients features it can't deliver and then expects employees to work nights and weekends for days on end only to deliver a band-aid solution that needs to be hotfixed 15 times.

Pros

Small perks like free kitchen snacks and the occasional company outing or event put on by the "Improvement Committee." Decent benefits, although they are being eroded away each year due to rising costs. There are some very competent, talented people who work there, although those numbers seem to decrease each year as they leave for greener pastures.

Cons

Poor company vision and stability - The company is constantly re-branding and restructuring. There's high turnover. The company often lies outright to its clients claiming they have many products and services and then has to frantically create them later, forcing its employees to work long hours for little to no added compensation. Poor Management - Most of the management is awful and inexperienced, at best petty and indifferent, and at worst, downright abusive. Eze says it takes its "upward feedback" very seriously, but considering the same problems continue to exist and in many cases has even worsened, management doesn't exactly feel the need to adequately address it. Morale is very low within the company in general for many employees. Office politics - There are a lot of office politics between teams, within teams, and between managers. This friction has led to increasing delays in product releases, among other things. It's significantly impacted the quality of work life.

Pros

Eze truly is a place that rewards hard work. Talented people from different academic backgrounds are hired into entry level positions and given an opportunity to thrive and grow in a meritocratic environment. The Leadership Development Program combines an entry level position, where you are immediately a contributor, and "on the job" training/knowledge-building designed to prepare new hires to be promoted to a Business Consultant position at one of 5 domestic offices (Boston, NYC, SF, CT, Chicago). The Business Consultant position is an amazing opportunity to work directly with high profile hedge funds, traditional asset managers, banks, etc. You become the face of Eze Castle and are responsible for developing and maintaining relationships with client contacts. You get to support and manage production environments and projects for existing accounts but are also given the opportunity to implement Eze's software platform from scratch at new clients. The role not only gives you amazing exposure within the company, which can open doors for additional upward mobility within Eze, but it also provides incredible exposure to the financial services industry as a whole. Overall, Eze is a dynamic work environment, where your day-to-day is always changing. The focus is on teamwork and it is very easy to develop great work relationships with your colleagues as well as long lasting friendships with co-workers. There are also great "small company" type perks like beer on Friday afternoons, a sponsered league basketball team, and sponsored external certifications like the Series 7.

Cons

You will be challenged here. Dedication and engagement in the work are vital for success and those looking for a 9-5 "punch in-punch out" type of job will be undoubtedly dissapointed. It can also be a stressful environment at times, particularly when working on hot production issues for clients.
