Pros

Good name to have on your resume. If you work in Newport Beach headquarter, more tolerable weather and generally smart people

Cons

Since the departure of founder and a co-CIO, AUM is on decline and senior management is a joke. Bringing in lots of expensive outsiders to impress clients, who aren't contributing really to the performances

Pros

Good processes and systems are far ahead of competitors.

Cons

Greed rules supreme, guys at the top have no interest in seeing anyone grow. They would rather hire from outside at any level below MD..which means no one has any value to the firm.

Pros

The only pro is the somewhat discounted food at HQ. Maybe it looks good on your resume?

Cons

Just google “PIMCO news” and you’ll see discrimination lawsuits, sketchy foreign investments, toxic work culture, etc. The place will implode soon simply because they can’t hire people at the rate they’re losing people. Upper management knows this and they’re on edge, which makes it unbearable for those who are stuck there trying to stick it out.
