Vantaggi
It was a very toxic work environment, and I can't think of anything good to say about it.
Svantaggi
It's a huge company, and very impersonal. Many functions are outsourced and the overall model for jobs outside of investment management and sales is to use contractors. Benefits department is not filled with actual employees, but contract workers. The result is it doesn't create a cohesive culture. It's a very "big brother" kind of place where they make you log all of your volunteer hours as a part of your annual review along with all of the DEI events you went to throughout the year. Bonuses are paid out to the top dogs in the company. For example, the new CEO was awarded over $20 million while others in the company were told that there would be no bonuses, or very small ones. What a de-motivator that is! So, if you you're a managing director or higher, the comp is great. If you're lower down the totem pole, expect long hours and average pay. A very toxic culture and not a healthy place to work.
