Pros

IB Department: Flat structure. MDs very approachable, juniors are taken to client meetings very early on

Cons

IB Department: Very political. Far west culture.. You eat what you kill. Internal progress is generally difficult, Employees are generally given for granted and main way to move up is to get a counter offer after threatening to leave. The CRM software is obsolete and incredibly painful to work with.
