Today was officially my last day working at Bernstein Investment Research and Management, a unit of Alliance Capital Management L.P. Technically I guess I was an Alliance Capital employee but I mainly worked on Bernstein's proprietary applications. I was hired straight out of college to work for them. The work environment was awesome and I learned a lot. My co-workers were extremely helpful and some in particular really helped push my career along and helped motivate me. Probably the most valuable thing I was taught is that you have to read to stay on top of technology. I actually recently read something interesting in The Art of UNIX Programming, available for free here,
It's not always easy to keep up with your reading but I've learned that sometimes knowing something exists or is available to you can save you more time than anything else.
Next Tuesday, I start working for Morgan Stanley. I think it's a career decision that will prove to be very rewarding and helpful to my future in general. Plus, I can take public transportation to get there instead of driving across congested bridges. Anyway, hopefully, I can take what I've learned with me and succeed in my new position. Good luck to my old co-workers and company. I know Lew Sanders will do wonders for you.
