Pros

People are generally nice, ethical, and smart. Work life balance is pretty good. Company is doing better than a couple years ago but worse than 10 years ago.

Cons

Under pressure from a shrinking industry due to the rapid growth of passive index funds. Means same or fewer people asked to do more things, which means more stress and less deep analysis for investment research jobs.

Pros

Remote work capabilities, friendly staff

Cons

Management promotions is all political. Often you have managers in areas with zero background. Pay is below par. Everything is hidden behind closed doors.

Pros

- Strong existing culture. Incredible to be a part of something so unique and special in the financial industry. - Always encouraged to think outside the box and to innovate. - The best training you can possibly get. The firm invests heavily in your success. - A boutique feel for a big institution. - Compensation is in line with what you're able to bring to the firm, and you receive far more support and resources than other institutions are willing or able to provide. - Talented and hard working people will find career mobility very exciting here.

Cons

- It's difficult to be the smartest person in the room at Bernstein... which is actually a good thing. You are forced to grow here.
