Morningstar – “Good place to start your career as an analyst, but be prepared for below average compensation.”

Pros

Great benefits and a truly entrepreneurial environment...new analysts are given immediate responsibility. More flexible working conditions and fewer hours than is typical in the financial services industry.

Cons

A good place to start your career and learn how to cover an industry, but turnover is high...the better analysts realize that they could be earning much higher compensation almost anywhere else.

Advice to Senior Management

Focus on retention of the better analysts by fostering more interest in their personal and professional development. A better bonus plan might also encourage top analysts to stay.
