Pros

Company culture that promotes healthy competition and high cooperation, personal and professional growth, fun and excellence. High growth and learning opportunities with internal training, benefits for pursuing studies and courses, mentoring. The alternative asset classes industry is in constant change and development, definitely one of the most exciting industries to work in at the moment. Needless to say that from London we have global exposure to a diverse pool of financial challenges that need accurate and reliable data to solve the most pressing daily challenges; Become proficient in a highly useful financial software product offerings and build a career in SaaS/B2B sales.

Cons

For some a horizontal and fast growing structure lacking opulent formality might discourage instead of motivate to do more and be part of the go-getters and shapers. Taking initiative and identifying a better way to do your job, share the findings with your colleagues, offer prospects and clients the best support. The company is transitioning from being a start-up company into a cross-continental market leader, especially after Morningstar acquired PitchBook for USD $225 millions. Due to the exponential growth some managers are not experienced enough but those who work hard and deserve it move up quickly. Compensations do not reflect the market and definitely advantage those who have worked for the company since early stage. Challenging and exciting to start in a new market, outside the US, where research is not as advanced because most transactions happen in many different jurisdictions and languages.

Growing too fast. Management based in Seattle so they are not involved in day to day operations. The base salary is not industry standard.

Pros

Unmatchable culture of excitement and relationship building Recent acquisition has opened up the doors for furthering education Ability to take on large projects that have real impact on your team and the company very early on

Cons

The market value of your skills will far exceed your wage over time An almost mind-numbingly repetitive workflow, can be very one note on a day to day basis Entrenches some of the misogynistic and racial bigotry that can at times be implicit in the world of finance. A very white male dominated company.
