Pros

Many dedicated hardworking employees who are willing to commit what it takes to accomplish the right thing for their clients. Company is in the middle of changes to improve although the improvements remain to be seen.

Cons

New senior management that doesn't hire internally for senior positions and cannot differentiate between committed vs. uncommitted employees; not all of the investment teams are firing on all cylinders.
