Pros

Open floor for all. Shift timings are great.

Cons

Management hierarchy is absurd. No plans from management for employees if they could not fit in a particular project.

Opposite of a meritocracy

Pros

Good work life balance. You can learn but the pressure of face time is not as bad as some other financial services firms.

Cons

Promotion is based on how you dress, how nicely you can make powerpoints and who you know. No part of the promotion process is based on true merit. Industry knowledge, accomplishments nor education factor in. This resulted in great executives being forced out, people with Ivy level education, and instead the top 3 in ops and IT have not a single college degree between the 3 of them. They seem mostly concerned with cutting costs and taking care of those they know, not those who have great accomplishments and skill since they can't recognize it.
