I'd say their more long-term orientated than the American firms. If I had to choose a career firm CS would be near the top of the list. JPM is becoming C 2.0. GS is too trading focused and I would be worried about its longevity considering the political backlash.

As lame as it sounds, CS executives are the most moral/ethical compared to other BBs. Their bonus structure emphasizes long-term profits and not short-term cowboy risk-taking to pump share prices and exercise those options or what not.

CS may not have the "best" at what they do people but I respect the company's culture. I walk by their building on 23rd & Madison almost everyday and I rarely see the douche personalities outside you generally see at rival banks

Thanks mb666. Can you elaborate more about the "long-term orientated"?
