Pros

Is the firm going through changes. Yes. Did we have some struggles over the past few years. Yes. Does Management care enough to try to change that. Yes. Some people cannot be pleased no matter what you do. I make a good salary, get to leave at 5:00 everyday and am never expected to work overtime. The location is close to my home, my coworkers are great to work with and my Manager is patient and fair with me. In the end the employees benefit most since it is an employee owned firm.

Cons

I have none. Some people are Debbie Downers. This place is really not as bad as others portray it to be.

Pros

When I was there they paid you a salary for the first 2 years as you ramped up and built your client base. You can go to commission before that if you are bringing in more money. Get all the holidays the bond markets get. Have a team that you can go to for the analytics and help you present it as a team.

Cons

No real autonomy here, feel like you are being watched a lot of the time. Treat you like you are in high school part of the time. No room to grow. Wanted a little bit more of a work/life balance.
