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

- Looks great on C.V, highly respected - Working with brightest people in the business (Ivy league/Oxbridge across the board) - Flat mgmt structure, able to speak to MD's easily and frequently as long as adding value

Cons

- Long hours & hard work, which would be acceptable if compensation matched, but it didn't - MBA ceiling, lack of visible progression is why most leave - Unstable after Gross and MEE left, senior mgmt structure needs to be solidified with no more big name exits

Pros

Good resume builder, exposure to world class and famous names

Cons

Tasks are robotic once learned. Few dynamic out of box needs, putting in extra work for PM's depends on PM's openness to get trade ideas from TA. Terrible work environment/hours - life draining.
