Pros

Fun people to work with. Some of the firm's leadership are top-notch bros. Not too corporate, not too Wall Street, just right.

Cons

Horrible compensation structure. Horrible. If you don't have something in writing with them, you don't have it. Poor work-life balance for compensation level. They're paying sub-boutique salaries, but you're working bulge-bracket hours.

Pros

Great people, diverse offerings, Clients and corporates liked how hard we tried to produce excellent services. Probably provided internships to over 200 college students and I stay in touch with many.

Cons

They needed to move into banking and that is why they were acquired by an IB firm.
