Pros

Lots to do and learn Good salary

Cons

Inability to get promoted in recent years A very political and caustic atmosphere Flattened org recently has reduced the ability to take on more Nearly impossible to make decisions and make impacting changes even at Exec Dir level and sometimes even at Sr MD Because of all of this, many good people have left the company and other good candidates are staying away

Pros

benefits, salary is near market rates with benefits making it a little better than some companies, they invest in training and education, great technology

Cons

lots of cost cutting and more to come, waiting is a requirement on every project, very few people have a true voice that management will listen to. the company is rife with politically savvy people, those that play it will or buddy up to the bosses get ahead, the rest have no hope, laterals are nearly impossible you have to already know how to do the new job and be a perfect match on paper.
