      Pros

      Relatively stable bank in today's market. One of the few still hiring. As always your experience will vary from one group to another but in general most people are very helpful, middle management is very approachable. Mostly a meritocracy. Some very smart and hardworking people in IT. The CIO has assembled a good team of direct reports and they are doing a very decent job of executing his vision of building an industry leading platform. The firm seems to follow Bob Diamond's "No jerk" policy

      Cons

      Hours...did I say that before long hours. Probably not any worse than at another IB, but maintaining a work life balance is difficult if not impossible.

      Pros

      Workload is manageable they don’t put too much on you. Hybrid you come into office once a week.

      Cons

      Some managers are nice some are not and if you have a manager who doesn’t like you it will make the job stressful. If you get a zero for QA part of your bonus will be gone and if you get 3 within a 7 month period you will have to come into office 3 days a week and be on a final and will not get a bonus, bonuses could be higher in my opinion, if your not a good collector they could be as low as $500-$700 every 3 months if your a decent collector they could be $1500 every 3 months if your a good collector they could be $2250-$3375 every 3 months but the base pay isn’t high enough either it’s 50k to 56k all around just not enough money
