      Pros

      Good base salary, cool office building, you get $20 a week to spend on snacks and drinks in the office, free iced coffee in the mornings in the cafeteria

      Cons

      Work Life Balance obviously isn't the best, Management at the top can sometimes be unheard from in months, Can be a lack of bonding with coworkers due to amount of work, lack of transparency when it comes to bonuses at least at the junior level, sometimes everyone knows the work won't be used for anything but you still have to do it

      Pros

      Great deal flow. Get to work on some interesting deals and you will learn a lot as a new analyst or graduate. Firm has some amazing senior bankers who are really good at what they do. There's room to develop if you really want to do it. But i can't speak for experienced roles / hires.

      Cons

      Office politics don't matter as much as an analyst but it's certainly there and you'll notice that. Work could be a lot sometimes (benched marked against investment banking standard) and middle mgmt. is pretty weak. And there's no incentives to fix that because it won't affect topline.
