Pros

Not having to work at this place.

Cons

A complete mess of a place. Enter a business via acquisition, fire people, fix a few things, call it entrepreneurial, spin the failure, sell. Repeat. Not able to create any new businesses because resources are never allocated or available. Ownership is surrounded by sycophants and lifers. Trading biz has been trying to get away from single stock options for like 5 years with no success or plan. Apex can't even service their own trading biz let alone provide any institutional services. The problem here is the toxic workplace, lack of leadership, lack of strategic plans, zero introspection, running like a chicken with their heads cut-off. Those of us with entrepreneurial roots, call it CRAZY.
