Pros
Good start to your career - you'll be able to learn a lot about the multi-asset investment industry. Also my experience of being in a growth-focused team allow me to spend resources on R&D other than simply churning the standard client deliverables. Company cultures are all friendly and laid-back, and in some way pushing people too hard can be given some proper side-eye. Work life balance is perfect. You have full flexibility over your own working hour as long as you deliver in time and your individual work can fit well with the overall picture.
Cons
At early-mid level the work/pay progression can be a joke, and the financial growth of the team doesn't necessarily come down to low/mid level at all, which actually loses the encouragement to the employees that actually generate the revenue. The company also relies quite significantly on existing client-relationship and human factor, and often slow to adapt to industry trends.
