Pluspunten
You will gain a lot of experience in a fast paced environment. Health insurance is covered by the firm. You will learn (if you are thick skinned) how to handle challenging personalities
Minpunten
Office politics completely run the show. Unfortunately your performance is evaluated more on face time and who you know rather than actual performance and results. From the very top down ego, unprofessionalism, and prejudgice are apparent. I have seen more than one *higher up* physically throw things across a room. More and more people have left/are leaving after spending many years there, while newer hires aren't sticking around longer than a year or two. Make a mistake? You will have someone actually scream at you in an open seating location rather than a private discussion. Do great work for several years? You'll receive a minimal raise (if any) and watch them hire a junior colleague at a higher salary than your current. Aside from the dysfunctional leadership, basic processes are falling apart and becoming less main streamed. Zero communication between teams. Cutthroat within your own team. Point72 has become chaos.
