Business Outlook

Pros

A paycheck (but not very big...all the money goes to the top and to the shareholders)

Cons

No mobility, Leadership Team croneyism (they regularly lie for each other and circle the wagons if threatened by the outcomes of their own incompetence), no respect for NLD (next Level Down). The firm's codes of conduct (Greater Good) are routinely trampled.

Business Outlook

Pros

zero expectations or account ability for mistakes, I never saw anyone penalized for making a mistake there, but people were continually criticized for doing their jobs

Cons

culture of fear and belittling, the angriest management team I've ever seen, much more interested in scoring points off of each other, than in contributing to the business

Business Outlook

Pros

- Many smart, knowledgeable, professionals - A fairly uniform world-wide brand - Broad spectrum of resources - A good place for young people to gain experience and responsibility - Decent wages and benefits for the middle rank-and-file - Very good compensation plans for senior and executive management - The Risk Management division (multi-nationals) traditionally had low turnover and excellent technical people - Extended benefits to Domestic Partners

Cons

- Very bloated, centralized management structure in New York HQ - Executive management's response to Spitzer's legal action in 2004 took 3 tumultuous years to stabilize and when the smoke cleared, a flattish, flexible decentralized organization had morphed into a rigid, authoritarian and increasingly out-of-step and out-of-touch management team. - Constant changing of technology platforms - most very, very bad - clunky and cumbersome. - 10s of millions of dollars spent on bespoke technology platforms - abandoned after a year or 2 - which really looks bad when you cyclically lay off hundreds of skilled workers. - Too many Managing Directors shuffling papers - Moving toward cheap, disposable workers - Middle Market business model can't compete with local and Regional - No longer stand out as knowledge leaders
