Employment status: former
Experience level: Junior

Great - for an investment bank.
Pros: Pay is excellent and generally above market (except at Associate level). With a few exceptions of course, excellent people, very smart and driven, and some very good managers. Outstanding in house education program. Generally meritocratic, although not without some politics. Inspiring CEO.
Cons: Quite a few Executive Directors (just below Managing Directors) appear to have flat-lined and can make weak, troublesome managers who often generate unnecessary work. Evidence of true "mobility" limited, although it receives much lip service. Generally, it's investment banking, so it's not devoid of a culture of fear and stress.
