Inexperienced middle management. Poor Compensation. Significant "brain drain". Long hours. Trading floor seating. Micro-managers encouraged. No autonomy. Little opportunity for growth.

Pros

Working with cutting edge technology, plenty of opportunities to learn more about finance, company is growing certain departments (news, video). Live up to their horizontal structure claims (easy access to management).

Cons

Huge company with resultant structure, takes a long time to see individual growth and promotion, easy access to upper management doesn't necessarily mean they'll listen to you, etc.

Pros

decent pay decent group of people

Cons

huge turnover with people leaving every week due to 'policy improvements' trying to become another MS or Goldman by being hard on employees and demanding without giving proper environment for career growth or achievement politicized with people trying to take credit for success and point out other groups' failures to get higher 'score'. ever changing 'metrics' are a joke with 'senior managers' not even knowing themselves how to do certain things while expecting the 'END TASK' delivered. NO SERIOUS GOOD COMPETITOR, so they are going fine in terms of making money, but day someone like Google or others focus on this area, thats when 'senior managers' or old timers will really find their worth ONLY QUESTION TO SENIOR MANAGEMENT IS WHY THEY HAVE SUCH HUGE TURNOVER WHEN SO CALLED 'SUPERSTARS' ARE THE ONES HIRING NEW STAFF and projects still fail
