Pros
AXA R still retains a lot of its "small company" culture, which makes it a pretty unique place to work for the Financial Services sector. You can still meet and know everyone in the office, you are not just another number or headcount and you have a real responsibility towards the success of the firm. This is also reflected in AXAR's bonus structure - it is based on a portion of the company's profit and everyone has an equivalent opportunity to participate.
Cons
The downside of such a small company is the extraordinary gossipy and political nature of the office environment. Sometimes AXAR gets a little too political for its own good, and that does not reflect well on senior management or veteran employees of the firm.
