Toxic Work Environment - Managing Director AllianceBernstein Employee Review

Pros

Bernstein's investment research & institutional sales are best on the Street. Smart, ambitious people, good, eat-what-you-kill compensation at most senior levels.

Cons

Post-M&A activity, the preeminence of Sanford Bernstein's name & research suffered. Unfortunately, the unhealthy culture remains. Discrimination, sexism, insider mentality, unethical managers and poor leadership all explain why attrition rates are so high. Employee satisfaction couldn't be lower. For those who have left, the PTSD from working at the company will continue for years to come.

Pros

AB is a solid mid-sized company with a really good work-life balance. The culture is friendly and supportive.

Cons

Compensation is relatively lower compared to larger firms, especially big tech or larger financial institutions.
