Pros

Great place to start in finance. Tight-knit community. Huge amount of potential is there with the assets and tech resources.

Cons

There is a ton of potential given the assets, but the joint venture is taking its toll on some of the better rising stars. Hence a high attrition rate as of late. Many of the best traders and salesman who were with the firm for 3-7 years have departed in the last 12 months. Additionally, with the main operations in Westchester, building up unit cohesion is very difficult. 5:30pm hits and everyone is on their way.

Pros

Reputation of MSSB, career advancement, huge range of products and services offered, huge range of access to research, MSSB has a global advantage

Cons

It is such a large company, with so many other employees, Australia offices are not as large when compared with other local broking firms; sometimes a lot of "layers" to get through to get something done.
