Svantaggi
- Has grown so much that making an impact is difficult. With the pie not growing as much, everyone's fighting for a larger piece of the pie, driving a political culture. - Weak in Equity Options and Equities (compared to Futures) - Questionable performance review methodologies. - So much back office "fat". Too many random roles and too little accountability. - Zero diversity in management.
