      Ever since the merger it's a different place to work

      Pros

      The pros are it's a large organization with plenty of resources. The analysts who are doing the work are nice, but not overly competent or talented. It's a place with a high quality lifestyle but not a home for overachievers.

      Cons

      Senior management and now the marketing department dictate all directiong regardless of what invesment ideas make the most sense for investors. Bad corporate policy ever since the days of the etiquette handbook seem to reign supreme and with Bernstein in charge now marketing is in charge instead of reasearch, which we all know won't work in the long run.

      Bizarre Place to Work for IT Professional

      Pros

      The pay is good and some of the people are extremely nice. The working conditions are acceptable and the location is good.

      Cons

      I am a consultant and this was the most bizarre place I was ever assigned. I was brought in to head up a project that was running several years behind schedule. The very first day on the assignment my hiring manager was "layered". In case anyone does not know what this means, my manager had another manager put on top of him and thus lost all efficacy. When I made suggestions about what needed to be done, in order to get this project on track, I was told that they would be impossible since the business people would be upset. The project had zero sponsorship and was completely impossible. I could go on and on but I think you general idea. All politics and no substance.
