Pros

Only benefit in working for this company is to keep your broker dealer license active while you wait for a real investment banking opportunity to come along. People are generally nice but most people you will find have type C drives and personalities.

Cons

Complete waist of time. Pay is equivalent to working at a small accounting firm. People work on draws which you end up going negative and owning the firm. Real investment banks compensate and make money. You will definitely not be rich here. High turnover as people realize they have made a big mistake in joining this firm.

Pros

you can make great connections at this company

Cons

Everyone is scared to work there for fear of being fired. THEY DON'T GIVE RAISES (not even cost of living) they expect you to work nights and weekends and there is no compensation for that. The company micromanages everyone, feels like you're walking on eggshells ALL THE TIME. One of the VP's behaves like a 15-year-old, swearing all the time , crude jokes including sexual innuendoes, drinking hard liqour and beer in the office regularly.

Pros

Here for the paycheck while I keep looking for a better job.

Cons

Incompetent management. Chaos. This place loves to gobble up companies, but they’re too cheap to hire additional staff to keep up with what they’re doing. Won’t be long before a mass exodus.
