Pros

The company provides good health benefits, vacation, 401K. The company pays you when you are on jury duty. They have a good donation match program.

Cons

Management ladder is frustrating. They think they have decent technology but in fact it could use much more. They say they like to hire from within and via referrals but it is hard to transfer.

Pros

Largest asset manager, attracts world class talent, growing businesses. Center of the buyside world and has relationships with all players and strong access to all markets. Great place to learn.

Cons

Very bureaucratic, large, hierarchical. Underinvested in young talent, too many marketing, strategy, sales, and operations positions. Middle level managers in these positions only slow things down.
