Pros

Small company where you can know a lot of people. Relatively easy to get things done.

Cons

Old boys club. 99% of corp and branch management is white men who chose each other. Number of women fin advisers is 8% against industry average of 23%. Almost no people of color. Shocking and dysfunctional. Lots of long time employees guarding turf. Many secret handshakes. IB and PE are favorites while PWM makes most money. PWM under served. Command and control.
