Pros

Highly professional environment, extremely focused, but decent work-life balance at the same time. Great compensation and benefits (as in, full comp health, dental, and life for you and your dependents at no charge to you). Flexibility, autonomy, and trust from day 1. Would recommend to anyone with a few caveats.

Cons

If you're coming from the outside, you may be surprised at how buttoned-up it seems. If you're coming from finance, this will not be a shock. Also, it is typical of a hedge fund in that it is about as diverse as a city in Iceland.

Just joined recently. A ton of resources at the firm, its been good so far

Cons

I came from a competitor firm. Not actually a con to me but I noticed worse employee perks e.g. no dinner provided on Uber etc

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.
