Good experience, but very stressful

Pros

Great resources. Without any formal advertising, Bernstein still creates great marketing pieces. The wealth analysis system is second to none. Very much a work hard, play hard environment.

Cons

Bernstein has a very specific and particular culture and if you don't understand it then you're done. There a lot of pressure to succeed so make sure you have constructive ways to deal with that stress.

Difficult environment

Pros

Some people are entrenched and safe but it's not an innovative of invigorated environment. There are some good people, but relatively few. Benefits are pretty good.

Cons

Technology is fragmented and generally unpleasant. There is limited mobility and a lot of bureaucracy. Very much a clubby environment, not somewhere for innovation of growth. It's purely old money management. Unless you're an equity researcher, it's not the place to be.

Pros

There is a good work / Life Balance at AllianceBernstein. It is a typical nine to five job without too much stress.

Cons

You are poorly compensated at Alliancebernstein. Many people leave this company to go to other companies which pay much more.
