Pros

The interview process was fair 3 rounds of interviews

Cons

Everything that was said in the interview about the company and what they were looking to do was not accurate at all. They lay off people fairly quickly and do it very rapidly without any warning or notice, and not based on any merit but on personal preferences and personal connections. they promise alot in the interview but will see very shorty after that its not true. No severance package and company is poorly managed

Pros

When I was there they paid you a salary for the first 2 years as you ramped up and built your client base. You can go to commission before that if you are bringing in more money. Get all the holidays the bond markets get. Have a team that you can go to for the analytics and help you present it as a team.

Cons

No real autonomy here, feel like you are being watched a lot of the time. Treat you like you are in high school part of the time. No room to grow. Wanted a little bit more of a work/life balance.
