Pros

Young work environment. The 20 something crowd is always a plus to be around, but that's about it.

Cons

The job is not as advertised. Research Assistant positon is akin to glorified call center soliciting information. There are unrealistic goals and metrics to be met in the NYC office. The business itself centers on business intelligence stemming from industry expert consultation, this itself can be seen as a glorified networking. Your role is to develop these networks, usually through solicitation. Take that as you will. No comment on managementm

Pros

Benefits. Senior management appear to care about you. People seem friendly. Benefits include pvt HC, pension contribution, subsidised monthly drinks, Friday afternoon drinks n snack in office.

Cons

They lie to you. They sell you the world in telling you that you learn loads etc. essentially you're a glorified cold caller. You call people up to see if they want to act as a specialist to offer advice. You're better off becoming a recruitment consultant. You learn more about financial markets and roles that way. Here you get a very top level view. The fact they don't require you to be a finance graduate to connect investors and experts, tells you what level of education they require. RA essentially work in a expert network. The company formed in 2007 but it's still got a start up feel. They systems are poor. Long hours. It appears as a great move for a new graduate. But if you're a finance graduate, it's not. You end up specialising in a research job that will not get you that far if you want to work in finance. It offers great money for a 21 year old but think longer term. You're better off taking a smaller salary now in the right role as it'll get you far more money in the future.
