Pros

occasional wfh optional still available. But probably will ceased soon.

Cons

Very negative team dynamic resulted from half the team. There is no proper training provided. If you ask questions, answer is usually "i don't know" "maybe", " i think". They don't share knowledge. Manager say, maybe should just let the person do that harder report and drown(such mindset). Manager is very very petty and you shouldn't question and challenge him on suggestions or opinions. He has bias and favouritism behavior. So he grants request to his favourite pet in his team, though she often complains & say negative things behind him. He is by nature not fit to be manager since he doesn't show leadership skills and basic work ethic(as he share and gossip with his favourite) despite going for leadership and managing courses. High turn over rate in the team due to him, not the company. He has serious mood swings. Senior officer is very much alike, the is type flock together. Traders are not very nice too, only rare few are willing to share knowledge and guide. So only have chance to learn of you meet the nicer traders. Poor work life balance and Traders are in london so very likely to work late hrs.

Pros

Above average base pay, good benefits

Cons

Middle management is mostly toxic people managers who do not offer their own experience or guidance and seem to be entirely out of the loop on day-to-day activities. There is a deep culture of managers taking credit for your work and throwing you under the bus if anything goes wrong(even if it was their fault). The money isn't worth it, save your sanity, there is little to no opportunity here let alone trust amongst colleagues. The bonus structure was much different than how it was pitched, be very careful, there's a reason why they don't let current asset managers in the interview process.
