Pros

Friendly welcoming people (helped by the "no jerk" policy)! Emphasis on teamwork - only looking out for yourself is not accepted. Completely different atmosphere to the investment banks where I have worked previously - no hire and fire! Fantastic graduate development programme and ongoing learning schemes. They emphasise a balance between work and family life and the compensation/benefits package is almost best on the street! London Graduate salaries in particular. Ability to work abroad and move roles is an added benefit.

Cons

Only recently considered to be a top tier investment house. Has grown so quickly that the back office/infrastructure occasionally struggles to keep up.
