Pros

Nice office location Decent benefits and vacation time Staff lounge with free coffee, tea, etc Stable, consistent employment It's basically impossible to get fired No expectation to work weekends, holidays, overtime

Cons

Antiquated technology 'Old boy's club' mentality Little room for growth or creativity No support for mobile devices other than Blackberry. Be really nice to IT if you want to get your work email on your iPhone or iPad. (That said, you should always be nice to IT people) Stringent internet policies - ZERO access to social media

Pros

Entrepeneurial culture. Friendly co-workers. Lower stress environment than some of their top competitors. Outstanding technology department. Active investment banking departments.

Cons

Lack of direction. Top producers rewarded regardless of merits of their operating models. Too many communiques from management. Slow to respond to changes. Do not reward exceptional performance below top producers. Not a good place to work for brokers trying to build a book of business. More of a retail broker dealer. Inconsistent research results. Obscurement of other team members in an effort to win the praises of top producers. Allow broker rivalries to fester.
