Pros

PitchBook is the land of opportunity for both people just starting their careers as well as those with more experience looking to leave their mark on a growing business. PitchBook does a great job training new employees not just for their roles but in the financial industry as a whole through the famed 'PitchBook Univeristy.' The company also does a great job with presenting internal opportunities, as during my time there I saw countless employees make the jump from one team to another after finding a way they could contribute in new ways. I doubt this is as common at other companies of similar size. Lastly, and most importantly, PitchBook is a fun place to work. The people care about one another, and from the top down, the company as a whole is a big group of friends who always seem to enjoy being together.

Cons

One of my only complaints is that in the several years I was at PitchBook I saw the company slowly lose just a bit of agility that I think gave it a competitive advantage over the larger industry competitors. Things just take longer as companies get bigger though, so perhaps this is just the natural order of things.

Pros

Lots of great people around. Positive culture.

Cons

Some say the pay is bad compared to other firms - which may be true - but the perks of being downtown outweigh having to commute 45+ minutes.

Pros

Talented employees, fun environment to work in, great culture. First job I've had out of college but when i tell my friends about the training and professional development opportunities we have they seem very surprised. Not many companies invest so much in their employee's growth and knowledge. There is even a knowledge development team that provides many types of training although it does seem that sales gets the most training opportunities and being in Research it would be nice to have more training support.

Cons

Pay is very low for entry positions especially in Research. They say they make up for this by having a lot of "growth potential" (i was told this in my interview) but it doesn't seem to be as true in research as other departments. One person I know is managing multiple teams on shore and off shore but doesn't even have a manager title. I also know a lot of similar companies in Seattle have better benefits and perks and it would be nice to have more competitive.
