      Don't get sucked in... get a year or two of experience and get out

      Manager - fund accounting
      Recommend
      CEO approval

      Pros

      On the operations side, they offer a safe (yet low paying) job with the opportunity to move up a few levels before becoming stuck as a mid level manager.

      Cons

      After a year of real, professional experience, your job becomes expendable and the management knows it. With no real pay raises and a lack of respect, it becomes a depressing place to work at. Don't get fooled by their promotions and promises like I did.

      Potential to be so much more

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Recent upturn in client focus due to market downturn. Overdue but the opportunity to start focusing on quality rather than 'ticking the boxes' is positive. Watch this space.

      Cons

      Fragmented departments. Seems a bit like mission impossible at times, unless a solution path to a problem is clearly defined they all seem to disavow all knowledge or ownership. Over abundance of middle management & VPs -hampering effectiveness.

      Can't complain

      Fund accountant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good salary. Really good benefits (health plan, pension plan) assuming you are FT as opposed to contractual/temp. The managers are generally very competent and friendly.

      Cons

      The opportunity for advancement is not that great and high turnover. The entry-level people seem to quit after about 1 or 2 years because the 2nd level people never seem to move up (to make room)
