Pros

D&P had a young atmosphere which made for good relationship building among coworkers. My time at D&P was great exposure to the financial industry, and the inner workings on how to start a career, it was a great first job.

Cons

While Duff was a great first job, it was not a career path. Favortism and politics outweighed the work you put in when it came time for promotions. Upper management was not supportive of career development, and 99% of the time put $ in front of employees.

Pros

- smart and motivated colleagues - wide variety of work, which keeps things interesting - good starting point for a career - generally friendly employees who want to help each other (non-competitive)

Cons

- "silo" structure of office creates tension btwn offices/groups - exec management claims comp is on par with competition but no word on who these "comps" are (I.e. Big 4, management consulting firms, i-banks, other valuation firms, etc?)

Pros

You determine how much responsibility you will take on. Great people to work with, managers are supportive and flexible schedule.

Cons

Senior management has done a great of job of promoting a slacker culture at Duff & Phelps. Strong performers at an analyst/associate levels with 100% utilization (which means lots of weekends in the office and NO social life) get about $5,000 in bonus at year end, whereas slackers that do the absolute minimum and hit their 80% or sometimes 70% target get nothing (and have a GREAT work life balance). In summary, work hard and get $5,000 pretax or just cruise along and get $0. The choice is clear, don't work hard.
