Pros
Hard to think of any-- They leverage the fact that they are the only recoginized financial company in San Diego- Soda machines 0.25$. They pay a little better than the market- Great place for PM's with upto 3-5 yrs experience. Sr PM's or PgM's -strictly avoid!!
Kontras
From a PM perspective: 1. Lot of churn in the middle management roles.They rotate or Fire PM's like changing shirts. 2. Higher management sucks-- too many cooks and lots of chaos and confusion filters to the next level. 3. No clear vision or strategy from higher management on projects- they start projects , then realize it doesnt make sense and put them on hold leading to churn in the projects. 4.Frankly speaking, its a back office shop for advisors- so not much new advancement in technology 5. Their IT budget is comparitvely small compared to other competitors 6. PM role is more of a glorified co-ordinator- PM's dont have much authority nor do they get to handle project budgets. 7.Lots of favoritism given to ass-lickers and work efforts frankly doesnt matter but i guess that must be there in other companies too 8. No Growth Potential !! You ll be stuck in the same position for years but if you like that then certainly a good place. 9. Worst place for Contractors- they are treated far worse than other companies in my experience.
