Pros

Great place to learn the basics of trading and hone your skill. People were great to work with too since everyone likes what they're doing.

Cons

It's actually not a job. You put up money to be there and then hope you're good enough to make it back after they take their 50% cut. Once you're in the hole, almost impossible to get out.

Pros

Friendly group to work with, like to enjoy the night life together, helpful in training. Partners made butttloads in 90's tech bubble and '08, so making money isn't an issue.

Cons

It's all about the money. If you can't make it and you lose your account, you're done. Very intimidating fact if you having a hard time.

Pros

Made some great friends. It was a great place to learn how the markets work. A good introduction to equity trading.

Cons

Not a place where management treats its employees fairly. Trading strategy does not work either. They need a new edge besides reading the tape.
