Pros
Well-known brand with talented, driven people and exposure to complex, interesting work. The firm attracts smart colleagues and offers strong learning opportunities, especially early on. Processes are generally professional, and the organization values high standards and client service.
Cons
Support functions (Finance, HR, IT, etc.) face more volatility than candidates may expect. In recent years, these teams have experienced limited compensation growth, headcount reductions, and restructuring, even while workloads and expectations increased. Career progression and long-term stability in non-client-facing roles can feel less predictable compared to other parts of the firm.
