AllianceBernstein

Is this your company?

Formerly very good company being dragged down by uncertainty and lack of direction from the top - Vice President AllianceBernstein Employee Review

Pros

There are a lot of really bright, committed people there; the investment team and mid-level management are trying very hard. Day-to-day interactions are generally quite good. Innovative investment strategies are being developed but it doesn't always seem like they're implemented.

Cons

Rather like being a well-paid orc in Mordor -- you may like your fellow orcs, but there's a pervasive sense of doom and a sense that as far as the top management is concerned, you're cannon fodder. It's gets a bit futile after a while.
