Pros

The company offers competitive pay, and a great benefits package that is better than investment banks. There is free food. The people working there are friendly, smart, and generally easy going compared to people at investment banks. More job security than investment banks. Fast paced work environment and some very interesting work. Ability and talent, not seniority, are recognized and rewarded. Training program for new grads.

Cons

The work culture is very unique. Some strict rules. It's much bigger now than 5 years ago and profit sharing are no longer that lucrative. Some of the senior management's decisions are difficult to grasp.

Pros

Great Office, Free Snacks and plenty of social events

Cons

Be prepared for a heavily politicised culture — it's pervasive and affects day-to-day working life significantly. The organisation suffers from clear in-group favouritism at the leadership level, where certain groups are visibly preferred for opportunities, recognition, and advancement. This creates an uneven playing field and quietly damages morale for those outside those circles. Leadership collaboration leaves a lot to be desired. In four years, I didn't experience a single structured team-building or bonding initiative — a telling sign of how little investment goes into people and team cohesion. Perhaps most concerning is the approach to compliance. Raising legitimate concerns or challenging existing practices is met with significant resistance from senior stakeholders, rather than genuine engagement. A culture where pushback replaces accountability is one worth approaching with caution.
