Pros
Having a job that doesn't leave you time to have a life
Cons
1. One of the worst companies I have seen. (Been working for over 7 years now) 2. Lowest pay in industry (30% below the next least paid IB job). Add slow growth to it and you are stuck at the bottom of the barrel. 3. Zero work life balance (Your weekend will go down the drain just from a single phone call from your onshore banker) 4. Zero employee benefits 5. The worst culture (You are at the complete mercy of your onshore banker. Even if she makes you work 18 hours a day nobody is going to put up their hand for you.) Managers will tell you to work until you die at your desk just because they don't want to go head to head with the onshore guys. 6. Poor brand value - translates to very limited exit options. 7. Infrastructure - still using 2003 refurbished keyboards to save costs. Broken internet all the time. Truly the worst job an educated person can have.
