Pros

Pay is great. The company is known for very intricate and complicated transactions allowing you the ability to learn a lot if you are willing to take the time time to teach yourself.

Cons

Management is very difficult to work for. Very demanding and not flexible. If management asks for something you need to drop everything to provide to them no matter what you are working on. Management has no respect of your time or the day to day work you are preforming. Office environment is very hostile.

Pros

A super innovative and entrepreneurial place that is leading both equity and credit markets every day. If you enjoy an intellectually stimulating creative culture working amongst the most brilliant and talented people in the industry, this is the place.

Cons

A very intense environment, with work product expected to be elite. Hours can be long and occasionally weekend work required, depending on role.

Pros

Tremendous culture across the firm - everyone truly wants to do what's best for Apollo with no local agendas Industry leading position in a growing industry and a great business model allows Apollo to enjoy sustainable growth Visionary and inspiring CEO with strong leadership Innovation is prized, at the leading edge of AI adoption Very commercial company where decisions are made on merit rather than politics Very welcoming place - great team environment and people genuinely like working with each other Flat organization where leaders are accessible Community-oriented and employees are encouraged to participate in community service Leaders are aware of the details of their business and lead by example

Cons

Not necessarily a con but this is a high-commitment work environment where people really are expected to give 100% day in and day out. The pace of change in focus and priorities is high so people need to be somewhat flexible and willing to pivot in what they are working on.
