Pros

Good people. Great opportunity for learning.

Cons

It doesn't seem like the company is doing well and there is nothing but good news from upper management. There is a disconnect and every few years there is a 10 percent reduction in staff, or another restacking to reduce real estate costs.

Pros

Culture and focus are top of mind--which might be the Con!

Cons

Closed product architecture, laborious in their processes, slow to move, react or change and a severe lack of employee diversity. When I interviewed it took forever, you would have thought I was threatening every senior leader's role...There is a paralysis by analysis environment which is why I left. For those considering joining the firm, be careful, patient and don't be surprised if they interview you for months and never make a decision, New York and Florida are revolving doors with limited talent.

Pros

It's a lay back environment, the co-workers are nice and friendly.

Cons

The pay is not competitive at all. The San Antonio office is a back office and for this reason management both in San Antonio and New York treat employee like children. Meaning, "do your job and be quiet... You're lucky to even have a job and especially working for AllianceBernstein."
