Business outlook
Pros
Relatively solid junior class Some groups are pretty collegial, have social events and get along well Banking hours but nothing absolutely insane Management little bit later to push on streetwide mandates (return to office, vaccines, etc.) than other banks Willingness to promote Compensation more heavily in cash than some other firms with large stock component
Cons
Pretty high turnover Lower quality talent, getting frustrated from working with not the smartest people Comp always feels average at best with respect to Street Typical hierarchal issues of an investment bank Leaner teams and less staffing than bigger banks
