Pros

the pay and the name.

Cons

very mediocre employees, no guts. This isn't sell side, this isn't buy side. It's just back-office. A lot of churn for new employees in the company, the lifers there obviously are just clocking the hours. Also I might add way too many indians and asians in the technology area. Hard to get communicate through their thick accent sometimes.
