Pros

Relaxed work environment. Not a typical high pressure finance job.

Cons

Management does not seem to be open about bonus pay. Also, not open to increasing 401k match or giving frequent raises.

Hi – thanks for taking the time to write a review about us. As one of the world’s largest private and independently owned financial services firms, we’re acutely aware that what we offer is very different to some other firms with respect to culture, and merit based career opportunities. While benefits vary in each of the 45 countries we operate, we offer competitive remuneration, best in class training and a comprehensive range of benefits that include health insurance, pension plans and much more.

Turnover and layoffs

Pros

The only good thing about working here is the salary and the comraderie in knowing that everyone else also hates their job.

Cons

Inflexible working hours, boredom, micromanagement, slim vacation, TURNOVER IS OUTRAGEOUS, upper management and HR leaving the company, lack of transparency. Sit at your desk for 7.5 hours asking for work and nothing will come, 5:30 rolls around and you get 2 hours of reports to run.

Hi there - thanks for taking the time to write this review. Sorry to read your thoughts on this. We recognise that January to March is the busiest time of the financial year, and that our workload increases. Managing this workload can be challenging. Staff motivation and retention is hugely important to us. If you would like to discuss any aspect of your work in relation to the above we encourage you to reach out to your local HR team.
