Pros

I loved the people with whom I worked, they are a smart and talented group.

Cons

The culture is a bit straight-laced especially when compared to newer companies run by generation X or younger people. Also, it's a mutual fund company first and foremost. The company has a history of technical innovation but they aren't a tech company so it seems like technical teams are hit hard when the markets contract.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
