Pros

Great name on your resume, some good exposure to different kinds of clients/transactions.

Cons

Not everybody had poor work/life balance, but for some of us we were there long long hours and we had little support to achieve our tasks. There was also a lot of favoritism and politics. Not always fair in compensation structure

Pros

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
