      Generally good (okish) place to work

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Brand name. Looks good on CV. - Generally competent staff. Some have a very positive cando attitude. - Most senior staff (MDs) are very approachable and helpful (though there are a few exceptions!). - Good place to build a career (if one starts early).

      Cons

      - Rigidly heirarchical and can be very bureaucratic. - Some middle-management staff are way too old fashioned (command & control) with a very insecure/working class attitude. - Generally DI/ED level staff (IT) are too immature and arrogant (I guess that is the case with all IBs) - they let lofty titles obscure their thinking and demotivate other staff members. - Would not recommend it for a mid-career move (get in early or just forget it). - Certain IB level strategic objectives are not very clear or transparent (especially on the IT side), shows management suffers from insecurity.
