    Pros

    The management has figured out how to create a great collaborative culture in a cutthroat industry.

    Free lunch, snacks, gym in the office, work events, etc.

    Cons

    Went on a torrid hiring spree and now heavily overstaffed. Management coming in is from Citadel which typically spells the end of a business's culture and edge. Culture in NYC office is depressing with few people on the investment side talking with one another. Getting rid of people who have been there a long time and built the culture of the firm
