Pros

Good place to learn. People are helpful

Cons

The pay among levels are too wide. Management won't do anything. Even when the firm does well, employees are not rewarded.

Pros

A high-profile company on your CV is bound to flatter your ego

Cons

The culture is incredibly manipulative, the management is dreadful, and the hours are long. Heavy workload while pay is far too low, and there’s absolutely no transparency when it comes to promotions. There’s also a complete lack of support for personal growth.

Pros

Technology for the wealth side of the business is top notch. Alternative Investment inventory and research is best in class.

Cons

Nothing of note-typical wealth pay system from a wirehouse.
