- Great Quality of Work (Credit perspective - Credit/Investment Memos/notes, Bond Comps, Covenant Analysis, Distressed debt tracking, Distressed debt company models [excluding Projections or valuations]. More important concepts learning like: Cap structure, Investment thesis writing skills, Industry Analysis and more. IB side - Research Oriented on Bloomberg or web. More specific on Public company comps, Precent transaction's, Weekly Global Slides, Company profiles (Basic slides) - Strong Database Competency (Mainly Bloomberg which is not accessible in many organisations due to its cost) - Strong Networks: Peers become like a family here. Coffee breaks and a sense of responsibility to help each other in times of need. - Outings/Time off: The Party places has been amazing for all Townhall. Also, you can expect more 2-3 dinner/lunch outings during Diwali or such occasions. - Great Office space: The new office has amazing office Mountain View with ample of sitting space. According to me, it is basically recommended for entry level with a mindset to learn /near 2 years experience candidates in similar role to upgrade skills based on both Credit and Investment Banking....Read More

- Salary Perks: Can add more perks (Recommendations: Dinner coupons, Additional bonus for cracking new clients by deliverable team, Additional incentives who supports on multiple accounts, Overtime benefits) Just a motivation to go extra mile. - Within Organisation Role Upgrade (e.g. Analyst to Senior Analyst) can be more quick based on employees skills. I feel the waiting is long for role upgrade compared to other organisations in similar space. - Need more higher level team for training's. Although you can reach out to CEO, he has great knowledge and helpful even in terms of complex deliverable. - Traveling: Difficult to travel for Western side employees (Staying from Kandivali to Vasai). From Kandivali - Takes approx. 1 hour 20 min one way traveling via public services (Fastest route, metros and railways). - IB side: Can have more deliverables on decks....Read More

I worked with ValueAdd as an equity research analyst. The office is in Mulund and people here are very friendly. They provide laptops so that you can work from home as well.

Dislikes

Nothing much as people coordinate with each other and deliver the work on time.

Overall it was a good experience and I recommend freshers to join here so that they might get a lot of exposure. But be good with Excel skills as it is mandatory everywhere now a days.

Client centric but with stretched resources, Open to feedback though implementation is not that great. Good place for freshers to start their career and learn the skills.

Dislikes

Not sticking to job description, micromanagement.

Fortunately I got good quality of work after I managed to built the client trust. But no growth opportunities and one will definitely feel demotivated when employer never appreciates your work.
