Pros

Good work/life balance. Up to 5 weeks vacation + 1 bonus week after 5 years of employment. Solid bonus structure. If you are at the end of your career, stop here.

Cons

No room for advancement past Management level. Global organization with no opportunities for cross country assignments. CIO is average leader at best. She wanted Capital to be just like "any other organization". Ask the recruiter why so many Managers and Sr. Managers have left in the last 12 months.

Pros

The pay is reasonable for the position, still have decent benefits and bonuses paid twice a year.

Cons

There are too many team managers and senior managers for the number of employees they "supervise". There is no clear path/direction to actually advance in the company. There are lots of "opportunities" which do not develop into a promotion or a raise. The wonderful perks have gone away year by year. The bonuses are not rising as the company's profit is back on the rise. They are so far behind in technology, that it is now a mad rush to catch up and expect associates to embrace it and promote it.
