Pros

A very successful and adaptable firm that's made it through thick and thin in the markets and grown quite a bit. Some extremely talented people. Technologists and analysts are respected and regarded as partners. Can feel really innovative and fast-paced. Some really interesting things to work on. Good support so you can focus on the things you want to do. Committed to education.

Cons

As is common in the industry, middle managers are often selected for talents and skills other than management and so they've got things to learn. Commitment to diversity and civic engagement are weak.

Thanks for your feedback. It’s especially great to hear feedback on areas within our culture since those are areas in which we’ve been actively investing a great deal of time and resources. So it’s good to know it’s paying off. The other areas you touch on are also very important to us and ones where we continue to try and improve. In fact, if you have specific ideas, please reach out and share — I would like to hear your thoughts on how you think we can be better in those areas. Reach out to me directly at jkunreuther@peak6.com.
