Business Outlook

Pros

1) Reasonable work/life balance: job hours are usually 8:30 to 5:30 with a full one hour lunch break when work permits 2) Cafeteria: cafeteria on 21st floor in the building is the only place that is innovative, efficient and well-managed

Cons

1) Incompetent management 2) Low morale: 90% of employees in the PMG department are looking for another job 3) Favoritism towards certain employees 4) Vicious circle of low comp packages --> demotivated employees --> bad portfolios performance --> low profitability --> low comp packages
