Business Outlook
Pros
BarCap is generally a meritocracy in that consistent effort and diligence will usually be recognised, if not financially. Internal mobility is good. You don't need to in crazy hours.
Cons
Linkage between effort and financial rewards is not always well managed. Senior management can be more focused on cost savings than revenue generation. People tend to leave to get a raise/promotion as internal processes don't keep pace with people's skills and positions.
