Pros

- The firm is reputable in the valuation world (non-investment banking space) and has several strong employees who are technical experts in the field. This knowledge can be useful. - Transaction opinion group is ok and the restructuring group is very reputable. - Generally pleasant and palatable colleagues across the levels. - Good health benefits.

Cons

- Lack of mentoring and accountability make it difficult for one to advance in their career; however, one will likely advance at Duff & Phelps due to tenure. - Environment of "get it done" instead of "get it done properly." - Management is not forthright (or is uncomfortable) providing constructive feedback, which is self-perpetuating and ultimately causes "bush league" work to be produced. - Recent acquisitions lack cohesive vision, other than they will "grow the practice and expand our presence." - Below market bonus. - If you are a true investment banker, don't forget that Duff & Phelps is a valuation firm.

Pros

Great learning experience for newcomers A lot can be learnt from coworkers

Cons

Very long hours that are not paid. You are expected to work day-night if needed and you are not rewarded for it. The pay is too low, which explains the high company turnover. Limited promotion possibilities. Tenure is more important than knowledge, skills and what one can actually do when it comes to promotion.
