Vantaggi

Slow pace, less stress than bulge bracket desks. Quality of work is mediocre, so can get by with minimum effort. A lot of on the road travel for a small shop so lots of time to be without usual employees.

Svantaggi

Poor, sometimes hostile desk environment, yet the social vibe is awkward, similar to the TV show The Office. Incompetent senior managers continuously delegates busy work and thus work is mostly non-sales oriented. Senior managers also hoards top accounts, hindering everyone else's progress. Not a place where new employees progress quickly (as opposed to other traditional institutional desks which hire only from target schools.) Seriously consider another opportunity as previous jr. salesperson/sales trader has either been fired or quit.

Vantaggi

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Svantaggi

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
