Pros

Up and coming firm gaining a lot of market share. Hiring a lot of strong senior level bankers. Unconstrained by new regulatory environment.

Cons

Very intense and political environment. Getting on the right team is important. Brand name is ok, but lags some peers. Compensation is in-line with the street but never above.
