Pros

- Pantry with Kind bars and gym for $25 a month in the same building - Extravagant holiday party where you'll see superficial white girls all wearing lou boutins - Establishing a brand...eh

Cons

- Senior management is nonexistent. You'll only see them on the company's website as they're too good to socialize with peasant employees - Lower pay for analysts to VPs but middle management gets paid well (while they lack relevant experience, knowledge, and overall intelligence). Middle management is severely out of touch with the industry outlook. - Extraneous spending on black cars, parties, lunches/meetings, and blackberrys. This is all preventing the advancement of the firms profits and it should be used for higher pay for lower level employees. -HR is A JOKE. They are useless, do not answer emails or returns calls, and assume they know ones daily tasks and responsibilities by knowing buzzwords. They have no clue what they're doing and this company says it promotes innovation but resorts to copying other companies to build itself up. They follow typical HR protocol in hiring students from top 30 universities where students have no clue what they're doing and barely know what Excel is. - Promotes white-male privilege 95% of employees in Securities are unqualified white guys. They will not look at minorities unless you're an Uncle Tom. - Terrible IT -
