Pros

Occasionally, the vending machine snacks are not past their expiration date. The San Francisco offices have fantastic views despite being a firm with a prison culture.

Cons

If you are a minority be expected to be treated like the help. Very much a "white man's boy club," management doesn't foster entrepreneurialism and vetoes any refreshing practices, the highest degree of politics and sycophancy is to be expected. Analysts/Associates are underpaid given the long hours worked.
