Pros

There unfortunately were none. The technology is cobbled together, convoluted, and working with any of the higher end employees is strictly controlled by senior IT staff. Hours are brutal as well.

Cons

The senior support guys circle the wagons around the top talent, it gets them a lot of perks <wink> <wink> Very often to the betterment of their personal wealth, both officially and unofficially. Employees are let go time and time again, for speaking up about this and other deficient management practices with no fear of HR interference. HR rubber stamps moves and staff releases because the top players call the shots. Cronyism at its finest.

Pros

Excellect company culture, beautiful offices, very good compensation and benefits, amazing opportunities for professional development

Cons

Very fast paced and innovative with high expectations, if you aren't a fast learner and highly adaptive you won't last here. It's a hedge fund so be prepared for some serious egos, but generally speaking the people are quite nice. They don't have a CFO, so it sometimes feels like central coordination/strategy is lacking to the back office finance function.
