Sadness (Cons):
Among the associate's Stephens can be considered to be a white boy haven. They guys, and I say that literally, every associate is a guy (so are all the analysts), are good people, but don't tend to hang out or have much of a social life outside of their job. I rarely say them out late at night and communication between each other was quite limited. One makes a good friend or two and then you stick to that. The analysts are a mixed bag. My boss wasn't the greatest and turned out, and I say this with pure honesty and no resentment, a selfish individual who was only worried about having his work done and running over anyone in his way. It worked for him, so I respected his methods, but it was quite difficult to work for. At the end of the day, Stephen's is meant for an individual who is ready to spend their life stuck in Little Rock and can be considered one of the "boys" very early on in their tenure. If you don't pass the sniff test, do not consider staying here for long, instead, use the company as a launching off point to a better work in environment.

Tips to Senior Management:
Give you associates a true shot at showcasing their skill before trying to find the next guy.
Ridiculous turn over. 5 guys left/fired while I was there for 4 months.
Senior management is a boys club and there is no diversity. Need more inclusion.

Happiness (Pros):
Casual work environment with less demanding bosses because you are not on wall street or in in north east. Longer hours than one may expect as you are having to come early to keep up with the east coast and stay later to work with the west coast. Hours, however are not that stressful. Lunch provided everyday ($10 limit) Monday through Thursday. Plenty of beverages and restaurants to order from on Fridays.
