Pros

You can learn a lot if you ask for the work. That's good and bad because you can be overwhelmed...But the opportunity to learn can be really good.

Cons

Still an "old boys" network. Get a strong male mentor to be successful. Its also a small company so opportunities for advancement may be limited.

Pros

The company is employee owned, but really only owned by a few very senior managers. Work life balance is good relative to NYC-based banks. There is a lot of good hands on training but it really depends on which analyst you end up working for since the training process is not really formalized.

Cons

Midwestern firm so it can feel like we were out of the loop relative to our NYC-centric clients and with most of our analyst meetings etc taking place in New York or Boston.
