Vantaggi
- benefits and insurance are both very good - unlimited PTO (although you aren't expected to use it) - plenty of snacks - a handful of genuine, fun people to work with - some growth potential in side-businesses; albeit small - fast-paced environment
Svantaggi
- workplace is heavily dominated by white upper-class males; seriously lacks diversity - company turnover has become alarming even among Senior Analysts - CEO is unwilling to engage with employees on nearly any matter - pay is subpar relative to the industry and relative to the number of hours you are expected to work; bonus compensation is laughable - culture is very different from what management thinks it is. CRC "culture" is defined by arrogance, entitlement, and hierarchy - management is old, stale, and lacks creativity. Far too entrenched in what worked 10 years ago and far too distracted to realize they are ill-prepared to provide quality sell-side research for the next 10 years. - training, mentorship, learning opportunities are few and far between - ideas and improvements fall on deaf ears and are seriously considered only if you play the office politics in your favor - management's decision making is often disorganized, slow, and very poorly communicated
