Pros
Superior alumni network. Access to the best deals on Wall Street. Career advancement and exit opportunities on par with core competitor, Goldman Sachs. Friendly but competitive culture. About as pure a meritocracy as a firm can realistically achieve.
Cons
Compensation is just average at the junior levels. Excellent work experience translates into long hours. Not immune to the bureaucracy issues facing most large organizations.
