Vantaggi

Micromanagement - you'll be told how to call people on the phone. Massive amount of emails irrelevant to your position for you to spend time reading/ignoring/deleting. More phone time with management than you can ask for. Always being surprised when your bonus gets paid and in what form it takes

Svantaggi

Receipt of year end bonus is well after you're supposed to have paid taxes on it. CEO, President and CCO (CEO's wife) collaborate to determine which employee will next be the subject of prolonged public criticism in front of the entire firm for minute and/or imagined work performance issues. Stock and cash components of compensation change radically from year to year with no explanation. Never, Never, Never permitted to sell any of the stock compensation. Family environment = unprofessional treatment of employees; lack of boundaries. Firm's reputation may make it more difficult to find your next job. High turnover.

Thank you for your feedback here and we are truly sorry to hear that you had a negative experience working with us. In an effort to be responsive, we would like to clarify two items: 1) Our bonus structure is clearly detailed in our employee materials which employees receive on their first day. This handbook also details when you are allowed to sell your stock compensation. 2) There is no collaboration between management to publicly criticize employees. We work in a high stakes industry and this often leads to difficult and direct conversations which are required to continue doing business. Our environment is similar to other top investment firms and it is not a fit for everybody. Lastly, we work hard each year to improve our employee experience and are always looking for ways we can make it better.

Vantaggi

The role involves thoughtful, detail-oriented investment work, with exposure to complex transactions and a disciplined process. The team is collaborative and approachable, and junior professionals are given real responsibility while still having support when needed. There are strong opportunities to learn across industries and deal structures, with a good amount of mentorship along the way. Compensation and benefits are competitive, including solid healthcare and a sense of stability. The firm also makes day-to-day life easier with meals provided, a dinner stipend in the evenings, and transportation covered for late nights.

Svantaggi

You get direct, day-to-day exposure to the CIO and CEO. That can be intimidating at first, but it’s a real advantage—you’re working closely with two thoughtful, highly capable leaders who are invested in development. There’s also a strong emphasis on structure, with trackers and checklists that keep the team organized and accountable. It reinforces a merit-based culture where people who perform well are recognized, regardless of level.
