Pros

Absolutely nothing about working here is good. The only pros working in the investment bank was getting 25% off he lunches during the week and by the way there's not even a cafeteria in the building you eat at your desk.

Cons

Technology is downright terrible, none of the systems work No cafeteria- you sit behind three computer screens and eat at your desk No work/life balance at all worked throughout the weekends. They do not value you as a person, you are a number to them. Layoffs- Senior Management/ everyone else is there to protect themselves trust absolutely no one. I lost about 5-6 colleagues with zero heads up and they were never replaced. Minimal team bonding activities outside the office, been here for 3 years and have had 3 happy hours which I paid for Promotions are only year end, you can take on alot more responsibilities throughout the year and will not be compensated for it. Bonuses are an absolute joke

Pros

I really enjoyed the office, the culture was great. Professional but relaxed. Opportunities are available if you want to advance.

Cons

It really depended on which team you were put on, I enjoyed working with my FAs. Base pay was not particularly high and it was up to the FAs to add any compensation. Some do and some don't.
