Pros

The people are great, as well as the offices. Good attitude towards work and learning, with plenty of opportunities for those who want to excel.

Cons

Not that great of a place for people who want to work in Tech, unless they have a passion for finance along with it. I went in thinking that it would satisfy my geeky needs for flexible programming languages and new technologies, sadly I was mistaken. This was my fault, however.

Pros

Work can be very interesting, impactful, and everybody is (mostly) very kind and intelligent. They don't hire dumb people.

Cons

Truly insane there is no free food or drinks. Culture feels very stiff and sterile despite not being particularly formal. Hard to get a raise or promoted. If your business has a bad executive, your whole world suffers. Can be extremely relationship based in bad ways.
