Pros

Free lunch, convenient location for CT residents.

Cons

Upper management is oblivious to the goings on in the company. One managing director routinely berated his employees, refused to listen to others during meetings, and discriminated against women. He was still in the office until recently when the government stepped in and AQR was forced to put him on leave due to his activities at a previous job.
