Company Culture

What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
The culture at the office is warm and welcoming. As an intern, I was able to meet and network with bankers from all levels of experience. Being able to work in the office was a blessing, as it allowed us intern to immerse ourselves in the action and to experience first hand the work routine of the City. Everyone in the firm was kind and approachable.
