      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Exposure to senior management within finance. Chance to learn about current markets. Ability to run with projects and volunteer for assignments.

      Cons

      Hierarchy based decision making. Back office is not viewed positively by the front desk. This is also reflected in salary increases and bonuses. Salary is especially low if you are on a work visa and are restricted to this employer.

        Business Outlook

        Pros

        - Smaller team at Marcus (consumer wealth management) so lots of opportunity - For the amount you have to do at the junior level, very easy to balance social life

        Cons

        - The base salary isn't good; you have to reach the vp level to get comparable market pay

      Just finished an application to a university that required me to enter all my work experience twice. First under employer history then AGAIN under work history. I am hoping no one else is that persistent or stubborn and I will be the only applicant! Oh, and you had to attach your resume too.
