Business Outlook
Pros
You will have the opportunity to rub elbows with some of the smartest people in the industry. Definitely a place that is challenging and one where you will learn an enormous amount.
Cons
Horrible/incompetent management and zero visibility in terms of growth prospects. It is extremely difficult to move within the firm and roles have become extremely specialized and focused on specific tasks. Very fast paced with long hours and very little work/life balance and not so great compensation. Politics will take you places while playing a team sport will only work against you. A very high stress environment leading to constant nightmares. EVERYONE is replaceable. Management will over promise and rarely deliver.
