Pros

Analysts, Associates and some VP's are very willing to coach and mentor Summer Analysts. One of the best places to gain Investment Banking experience in the Midwest (outside of Chicago). Culture is very good -- superiors don't show the usual pride and posturing that is found on Wall Street, but still demand excellent work.

Cons

Summer Analysts are paid an hourly rate instead of a monthly salary. Summer Analysts will also spend the majority of time working on pitches rather than deal work. Must be open to living in Cleveland to really enjoy program.

Pros

Key Investment Services is a big component at Key Bank. The RSM are very easy to work with and for. There is a decent product mix with very little haircuts.

Cons

The back office support has a lot to be desired. You almost need to write the business and follow it up every step of the way. Once your done with your guarantee the payout needs major adjusting...it's way to low. Not unless you can survive on 30k plus a 15-21% payout after the 30% cut the bank takes? Maybe in OH that works but not in lower NY. Lets remember...this is a 4 year old company that sold it's business to UBS 4 years ago...There really isn't any book to make trails off of!
