Pros

Good entry level roles Chance to learn about financial markets Young environment with some good people

Cons

Very low remuneration for a financial services firm, only senior management get paid well Marketing - the firm is run by this department, major strategic decisions are made without input from other depts, often leads to costly mistakes Poor communication between departments No defined career path - good place to start your career but after that you hit a ceiling.

Pros

A lot of mobility within the company. Employees could get their foot in the door through customer service and work their way up to a director position in the marketing department

Cons

Some positions were outsourced. The FOREX industry itself is not well established in the US and market conditions could mean drastic downsizing. This took place 3 times while I worked there.
