Pros

Very flexible work environment, including reasonable hours and occasional ability to work from home. Great benefits including 6 week paid sabbatical every four years. Great people, very friendly, open environment. Management open to feedback. Ability to be entrepreneurial and develop your own career path.

Cons

Compensation is low for finance industry and equity research in particular, but this is offset by reasonable hours and other flexibility. Equity research business is young and is still building reputation particularly among institutional audience.

Pros

Great benefits (e.g. 6% of salary 401K matching program, 6-week sabbatical after working 4 years). Good opportunities to switch roles within company. Most employees are great to work with.

Cons

Slightly lower pay relative to other companies. Management might be on a course of changing strategies across orgs too quickly, resulting in too many things breaking and failed outcomes. Removed 3 days a week in-office policy, which may lead to missed talent acquisition opportunities.
