Pros

They supply great bonuses to their EA Staff.

Cons

The SF Office is a fashion show. If you are an EA with a family, they look down on you. You are of more value when you are young and fresh or older with older children that need less attention. They work you long hours and through lunch, so have it catered daily, but with no breaks. Its like a cattle call when its lunch time. They also pile work on you and don't ask how you are doing, and will continue until you go under with no remorse. Very cold environment. Not a great place for work/life balance.

Pros

Great salary. Great perks such as daily lunch stipend, reimbursed for commuting costs. Opportunities for lots of OT if wanted but without pressure.

Cons

While everyone was kind and professional, EA’s weren’t always made to feel like part of the team like I’ve seen at other firms. Yes, they’re valued and treated well, but weren’t included in team events other than during Christmas. Isn’t a Big deal, but if I had to name a con, that would be it. Really smart people, autonomous environment, and everyone works collaboratively. It was lovely working there.

Pros

Good benefits (although I understand that these are now being whittled away). Interesting work.

Cons

They sell you on culture but anyone who has been there a while will tell you that since they brought in half of Goldman Sachs to run the place the culture has tanked, unsurprisingly. You can’t trust the GS crowd and sadly they’re running the show. Founding Partner is interested in doing deals and has withdrawn from managing the firm, which is sad as he did care about the staff. Now management just care about their LTIPs and bonuses.
