      Pros

      Management's current mindset on expansion could present opportunities for financial services professionals looking to shift their current roles to a different company.

      Cons

      Continually heard from management how Jefferies was "special" and had a "uniquely different approach" to financial services compared to the traditional bulge bracket firms. In truth, it has all the pitfalls of larger rivals (uninspired thinking and leadership, internal politics) without the benefit of their expansive institutional scale and resources.

      Pros

      Great work culture and excellent benefits and programs for employees and their families. Opportunities to grow in house and vertical mobility.

      Cons

      Financial Services Industry is going through a lot of stress with the excessive amount of regulations. Pressure to perform is high and turn around times are long.
