Pros

I worked at KeyBanc Capital Markets and worked with a great group of people. Pay and benefits were great. My co-workers were smart and intelligent and there really weren't any big egos to deal with.

Cons

The amount of travel was a bit taxing and I missed being with my family. Also, working on the west coast made it taxing to work stock market hours. Both of my issues were more due to the line of work rather than the company itself.

Pros

Flexibility is what sells this place as a great place to work. Hybrid schedule, great PTO, no guilt trips for needing time off for family matters.

Cons

Your experience will vary greatly based on your manager. One asset manager can freely call in or wfh without worry where another AM may be reprimanded for the same. The insurance department is completely inept. Borrowers are constantly threatening to sue because our insurance dept management sucks. Very little training across most departments. Some people work very very hard, others dont work at all, there doesnt seem to be much oversight there. When a manager tells their employee "dont expect to get promoted next year" with no guidance or encouragement, you pretty much kill all motivation for that employee to do better. They will hire people as senior staff and pay them way more than their seasoned employees make, and then tell their seasoned employees not to expect a senior promotion.
