Subpar Compensation, not the best name firm

Pros

Very relaxed, down-to-earth culture. Dogs in the office, and the job is easy and doesn't require much intellectual horsepower. You get exposed to "venture" or growth equity investing, which seems like a buy-side job, but without any training.

Cons

As an analyst, you are a glorified salesperson. You just cold call (after a cold email) a bunch of companies to hit weekly metrics. Pay is subpar, and it falls into bottom quartile of banks. Go work for a better firm.
