-Brokers are treated like celebrities and are all wealthy white men (do not know of a single ethnic broker in the SF office)
-Very few brokers actually started out as analyst and worked their way up, usually just poach top brokers from other companies
-Any support position (analyst, senior analyst, graphic designer, client services, etc.) is grossly underpaid and is expected to serve the brokers every request 24/7 with no outlined career path
-SF management team is extremely dysfunctional and incapable - i question whether this is really how a fortune 500 company operates every day
-Analysts typically stay for 2 years before burning out and moving on to competitor who is actually willing to help transition them to brokers
