Work in financial services on a team that manages a wrap product (fee based investment management account) and does due diligence on our retail funds (advisor sells them and is responsible for contacting the client for rebalancing and suitability).
Pros:
My company is really inefficient (so I look like a rockstar a lot of times)
I'm underutilized (can study for my CFA and dick around on CP all day)
I get to do what I love (read finance shit, invest, and have exposure to the best fund managers in the country during our due diligence process)
Cons:
Not much possibility for advancement here (more in the industry but financial services sucks right now)
Have to earn my stripes either by being in the industry for awhile or getting a top tier MBA if I want to move on to what I really want to do (I want to be a portfolio manager)
