Pros

Great for resume since CItco's name is known worldwide and is still #1 for Offshore FA Best place to pick up all things hedge fund accounting; the grass is not greener anywhere else Good benefits; used to have unlimited tuition subsidy Open bar parties

Cons

Poor top-down management style; your manager is always right. Mgmt is inconsistent in their reviews; no standards Mgmt does not understand fund acctg because they were hired externally, so don't have a clue about work load. No growth potential; no lateral movement Long hours; overtime starts after your first 50 hrs per Ontario HR standards Like any fund administrator, you will not get a real taste of hedge funds or alternative investments

Pros

Its best to work here for a few years and gain experience elsewhere.

Cons

Company went from 2 days on-site to now 3 days on-site, i dont mind it but this company has low morale and all the employees are sick of this place now. If you want a high salary but no opportunity to advance this is the place for you. 80% of the company is senior level and no room for growth or promotional opportunities.
