going down the tubes - Anonymous employee Boston Capital Employee Review

Work life balance, knowledge leadership, and solid place to grow career.

Pay is subpar compared to industry average.

Young people were smart and just all around great people

Everything else: - Low pay. Like really low. - Dull culture - no inspiration, no energy, no motivation - Senior members weren't great - some wouldn't even show up for weeks at a time or show up like twice a week - Mid-level members all looked pretty upset and just had a horrible energy. But how could you not? They were probably underpaid, underutilized, and doing extremely boring work - all of them for 5+ years! - Analysts were glorified administrative assistants. Even if you wanted to grow, you couldnt because you had to deal with an outdated system - some things that should take seconds, would take 30 minutes. Scanning, printing, sorting through paper, running to get signatures, and organizing folders was 70% of the job - Turnover was really high among young people because of all of the above. Company lost some really bright analysts (but you also couldnt be mad them - anyone would go crazy in this type of environment) - No diversity. Only a handful of minorities during my time, and they were all smart and brought some life to the company (but left because everyone leaves). HR did a horrible job in this department (honestly not even sure we had an HR department...) - And again - growth was limited - almost discouraged. It was just extremely sad
