Business outlook
Pros
Colleagues and senior management were generally pleasant to work with, respectful, and made the workplace enjoyable. Slightly better work-life balance than other companies in financial services.
Cons
Long hours and below-market-rate pay, both pre- and post-recession. Several rounds of layoffs during the recession decreased employee morale. Management was sometimes overly demanding but is expected at most companies. Limited exit opportunities compared with other firms.
