Pros

I value my new employer so much!

Cons

1. Some managers just LIE in your face and laughing at how they can keep lying! 2. Too many useless meetings eat developers focus time, 3. Company is cutting costs as crazy, save on people and technologies. 4. Salary and bonuses was very good when i joined, but not anymore. 5. You may have to work absolutely not at the projects somewhat near you were promised when you were interviewed. No one cares what are your professional interests and specialization.

Pros

Smart people always willing to help Great benefits/pay/lunch stipend etc. Collegiate environment, most analysts are in their mid- late-20's

Cons

Work can become repetitive - same coverage for multiple years at a time speaking to the same people Limited work life balance (but its a hedge fund so you should expect that going in) A lot of micromanagement/bureaucracy. Too many cooks in the kitchen overseeing work, can make the research process tedious
