Pros

The company really has an amazing family feel to it, and they are going above and beyond to help launch and develop careers over the long term. Having worked within a bank for over 10 years in a similar capacity, and spoken to many friends at other similar types of Hedge Funds/Family Offices, I really feel like this is an awesome place to work. Great benefits, perks and dedication to the development of their employees. On top of that, I have been pleasantly surprised with the work life balance and the emphasis placed on that for employees.

Cons

Same cons as with any fund in this field, though muted relative others. PM duration here is longer than normal as a testament to that, so I'm happy to say that despite the career risks of the trading world, this feels safer than most for career stability.

I came from a competitor firm. Not actually a con to me but I noticed worse employee perks e.g. no dinner provided on Uber etc

Pros

Excellect company culture, beautiful offices, very good compensation and benefits, amazing opportunities for professional development

Cons

Very fast paced and innovative with high expectations, if you aren't a fast learner and highly adaptive you won't last here. It's a hedge fund so be prepared for some serious egos, but generally speaking the people are quite nice. They don't have a CFO, so it sometimes feels like central coordination/strategy is lacking to the back office finance function.
