Pros

An interesting dynamic of people with different experiences and perspectives.

Cons

Quite a lot of bad apples. Once you're out of favour, you're pushed out of the business. Bullying and rumour mongering are rife and very well hidden.

Pros

LeapFrog unites thinkers of tomorrow, those who embrace new progressive ideas of doing good and those who don't live for the sake of greed only. You would meet folks from all walks of life, very diverse, very friendly and down-to-earth people you would call friends at the end of the day. The level of thinking is top-notch and you will see that your humanistic aspirations go up as well, as a result of such new-wave environment. One gets to enjoy global retreats, work-life flexibility, office lunch, and top people - here I mean not necessarily in terms of formal education (which might easily be a mere piece of paper) but rather in terms of their true quality that shows in world-changing ideas and inspiring conversations.

Cons

As the firm is relatively young, even though it might produce top-quartile PE performance, it does not pay near the top quartile comp (which means the promise of top-quartile returns is not in line with the logical conclusion that it would translate in top-quartile benefits); pension is not even worth mentioning. That is the primary reason why it's difficult to attract top talent and difficult to keep younger people.
