Pros

A lot is expected of you, including regularly going above and beyond the job description. This gives ample opportunities to prove your worth to management. Plenty of very intelligent people around. Good amenities, nice place to be. Good support for well-conceived projects.

Cons

Sink or swim at all levels of the company. Formal opportunities for professional development are not terribly abundant, and don't seem to be a major concern of management. Penchant toward rigid, big-company mentality. Management has long memory for small imperfections-- really have to bring your game all the time.

Pros

Excellect company culture, beautiful offices, very good compensation and benefits, amazing opportunities for professional development

Cons

Very fast paced and innovative with high expectations, if you aren't a fast learner and highly adaptive you won't last here. It's a hedge fund so be prepared for some serious egos, but generally speaking the people are quite nice. They don't have a CFO, so it sometimes feels like central coordination/strategy is lacking to the back office finance function.

Pros

Smart people always willing to help Great benefits/pay/lunch stipend etc. Collegiate environment, most analysts are in their mid- late-20's

Cons

Work can become repetitive - same coverage for multiple years at a time speaking to the same people Limited work life balance (but its a hedge fund so you should expect that going in) A lot of micromanagement/bureaucracy. Too many cooks in the kitchen overseeing work, can make the research process tedious
