Good place to work if you are female - Quantitative Analyst Barclays Employee Review

Women get promoted after just 3 years on the post (even with 1 or 2 maternity leaves in between and so-so performance, although it helps if she is the wifey of some director in other department). For promoting men they really need to work hard and lucky if you are promoted after 5 years (that's if you are not Chinese, in that case you will get promoted... NEVER). Working with very intelligent quants can have some negative side effects like a good share of them are mental one way or another.
