Good place for Seniors not for Juniors

Pros

Company has a good reputation. Worked with many go getters and intelligent people in a relatively good environment.

Cons

Management happy to keep qualified juniors in roles with little responsibility. As a result juniors receive little to no training or guidance. I don't like commenting specifically but workflow certainly wasn't increasing in the business division i was in while i was there, this was inline with many other investment banks. In my opinion opportunities in these institutions are becoming smaller and smaller. Probably not as good a career path as it once was.

Great company to work for, got to experience a wide variety tasks during my employment and worked with a variety of excellent financial professionals

Difficult market conditions could put a strain on revenue generation within the team. But it was a situation shared by all.
