Pros

-Incredibly thoughtful and disciplined investment process that has garnered the firm three decades of successful returns and AUM growth -Kind and collegial atmosphere for an investment-oriented firm -Meritocratic and flat culture where anyone can contribute -Diverse team (20+ nationalities and languages) -Long investment horizon allows for a supportive work-life balance

Cons

-No cons, so long as you know what you are in for. Possible drawbacks are: 1) structured investment process can remove some of the dynamism for younger employees. Must be ok with staying in your lane. 2) the firm understands its bargaining position and ties compensation to long-term results. Great for a career, less so for a multi-year stop as a job.

Pros

- Additional compensation - Access to senior management

Cons

- Managers are seemingly never disciplined for mistakes they make, which is certainly not the case with junior employees - Little to no opportunity to move up past a Senior Associate on the Client Management Team - The family-like culture that the firm advertises exists...but not outside of the Investment Team. Particularly in Client Management, it is show up, work through your lunch, and get as much work done in near silence as possible before the end of the day
