Great place to work - Anonymous employee Clocktower Group Employee Review

- Team-focused, clients-first, entrepreneurial, work hard/play hard culture - High energy, intelligent, hard-working team across all business units - Supportive leadership prioritizing health/wellness, diversity, social impact, etc. (i.e. weekly team fitness classes, donation matching program) - Great working environment: incredible views of the pacific ocean, paid lunches

- Open office trading floor format is definitely the industry standard, but not the most productive structure for some people - Very fast paced environment is motivating, but can create occasional burn out.

Reputable firm-good name to have on your resume Catered Lunches Casual Dress code

Goldman hours with NONE of the perks-low salary, bare minimum benefit package-only medical, no vision or dental, 401k but no matching. They do not reimburse for the use of personal cell phones which is a violation of CA labor law 2802. Poor Work-Life Balance- Expected to work the day before and after Thanksgiving as well as the week between Christmas and New Years. Unlimited PTO but people rarely utilize this because they are afraid of falling behind/looking bad No flex spending account Cliquey office culture- different rules for different teams. (AVOID IR team, Mean Girls meets corporate is their vibe) Management cares more about the perception of being "cool, casual, inclusive, and diverse" then actually implementing policies or hiring practices that facilitate this. Partners are all CIS men and predominately white, women are in support or junior roles. Clocktower is an unwelcoming environment for black, hispanic, LGBTQIA individuals, or anyone who did not come from privilege , attend top universities or is not able-bodied. High turnover rate-management is bad at retaining people and are not transparent about personnel changes.
