Good middle-market Investment Bank

Pros

Good place to work if you are looking to work in middle-market. They don't have the brand recognition of other banks outside of financial circles but they do work on some good deals. Comp is similar to other banks although bonuses are probably lower.

Cons

Still not considered a top shop for M&A compared to other middle-market banks, although they have a decent flow.
