      Pros

      This is a growing firm with many career opportunities. The work/life is challenging, but similar to other banks. In general, the quality of the people is excellent.

      Cons

      Since it's a new Company, many issues, like sharing information between groups has not been fully resolved. Also, the hours can be long for people not used to investment banking.

      Pros

      Since it is a small shop, you have a good opportunity to learn and progress within the firm. Less bureaucracy than other shops.

      Cons

      If there are no deals going on, work can be really boring and compensation will be hit hard. Smaller groups compared to other firms so less opportunity to grow network.

      Pros

      Fraternal type of enviornment with a emphasis on hard work. At times, long hours and not much emphasis on facetime.

      Cons

      Could use some more structure but as the cmopany has a start-up type of feel, this is expected. Management is working rapidly to put in the necessary structure.
