Pros
Selby is a very well established brand in the US now after being out here for 5 years, they work with some of the best banks, hedge funds, asset managers and trading firms in the world.
The culture is extremely meritocratic - if you perform well, progression is not based on years of service but achievements and results, if you like that type of environment - it's amazing.
It's a multi-faceted sales role - you bring in new clients, work with existing accounts, manage relationships and build your own brand too. if want to learn all of those skills it's a unique chance to do so.
You get the benefit of the Phaidon international model and cross selling ability.
I've had the chance to do a different job every year over 5 years in the business and have constantly felt challenged but supported too.
The culture - work hard, make money and have fun with like-minded people. you can't ask for much more than that in my view.
The business has gone from 5-250 people in the US in 5 years, the growth is insane and even faster than I was told it would be.
The culture isn't arrogant - you don't get that "too cool for school" feeling from those that do well, everyone genuinely wants each other to do well.
Cons
It's not for everyone
It's not a 9-5 - if you want somewhere to hide or "a job" this isn't the place.
with any rapidly growing firm there are growing pains
