Pros

Smart co-workers. That's it.

Cons

Giving offers and then firing employees within 6 months, all the while actively recruiting the next round of unfortunate college seniors. Negative impact on your career - no one has heard of MMG Partners and the number of former employees getting into business school has dropped like a rock. Dishonesty around salaries and compensation (if you manage to stay after the annual firings because they don't have enough revenue). Really unethical behavior by management, including asking employees to post favorable reviews on Glassdoor. Taking advantage of college graduates looking for a job is unacceptable.

Pros

-Co-workers: Primarily ivy league educated women, since I've moved on I realized that it's rare to have such consistently brilliant coworkers, which provides a lot of room for professional development and friendship. Employees usually leave to work for at elite financial service / fin-tech firms (great exit opps). -Growth- being that it's boutique run by MIT computer scientists, there's not a lot of organization or focus from management. There's a lot of room to grow and take on initiative. Depending on your personality, you can take on as much as you can chew which allows relatively young employees to take on a lot of responsibility -Skillset- Analysts and associates are able to gain top technical abilities (excel, VBA, SQL) given how data heavy the work flow is. Although it is a consulting firm, they do offer a propriatary SaaS produc tthat is used by almost every global bank/assetmanager. This gives you a lot of exposure to enterprise software deployment/SaaS sales/database management, which can be a great help when looking for an exit opp.

Cons

Cannot emphasize enough how terrible management is, unfortunately the CEO treats the firm as is pet project and the partners are incredibly lazy and unfocused. People are constantly surprised that they're able to recruit such excellent analysts/associate. The CEO picks favorites and champions over all other employees regardless of effort.
