Pros

Decent people to work with and not as aggressive or toxic as some other financial firms.

Cons

Management is pretty bad and all about cost cutting. CEO is a joke and the firm seems years behind peers in terms of operations, strategy, performance, human capital, etc... Before the recession, it was a great place...but then the CEO got replaced and the new one is a complete joke with no sense about how to effectively manage people
