Pros

If you like energy, you get to stare at it from a distance. You'll have some war stories when you leave. Free fruit.

Cons

You get lured in from a tier 1 BB/specialist bank with things that never materialize. Before you know it, you're essentially an analyst in an M&A sweatshop that then however sits on the risk when the deal closes. Deal by deal funding means you're pitching like on the sell side. Model assumptions are quite ... uhhh ... optimistic. Promotions random, bonus bad, no carry (long term incentive plan is terrible, it just delays the bonus). Dinner allowance doesn't even cover the sushi. Complete toxicity, burnt out analysts everywhere, clueless directors without PE or banking background.

Pros

- Working in the back office, I've found nice and clever people to work with. - 2 days home office. - The office itself is central, well stocked with goodies and has an amazing view.

Cons

- The front office and the back office are separated (5 min by walk) which makes it a harder to have a spontaneous conversation. However, the company organizes monthly lunches to bring people together. - Due to the size, things are sometimes a bit chaotic but this gives also the opportunity to shape things more and take ownership.

Pros

Paradeplatz office only to be honest

Cons

Nothing good to say about this company apart from good office location in Zurich city centre. Incompetent leadership, absolute worst people are the ones that get promoted most because loyalty matters beyond all else. Every year at EIP = -5% IQ. Recruitment seems to seek out special cases and/or narcissists. Super long working hours (long after midnight, weekend work standard) while bonuses are a complete joke. Turnover is insanely high, and it is not surprising. Morale is on the floor, everybody is desperately looking for a way out. And all this chaos shows in investment performance and deals quality. If there was any real competition in Switzerland in this market, EIP wouldn’t exist. The job description and the actual work deviate by a factor of 100% and promotions are paid for with dignity. Don’t do the mistake of joining this company.
