Pros

Good product- well entrenched on the buy side.

Cons

All the good management has left. ELT/ HR leaders still in the firm are thoughtless and power hungry. Read thelayoff.com for how the culture of the company is for those on their way out.

Pros

Great work/life balance, but expect to work hard. Good team dynamics and open communications.

Cons

Expect a reorg with cuts every 3 years or so. Resource prioritization often seems more tied to messaging value than actual value. Struggling to find a place in the FinTech ecosystem as it's not a giant like LSEG nor Bloomberg, but also not as focused and agile as small competitors.
