Pros

Good name to have on a resume.

Cons

I figured that working in the legal department during undergrad would be a great step for a business-major who planned on attending law school, but ended up learning almost nothing about corporate law and performed only menial tasks despite being open about wanting to learn the business.

Pros

Lots of products and services. Tons of potential!

Cons

In order to be a top performer, you have to be willing to break the law and accept that the company wants you to violate BSA regulations related to KYC, CDD, and EDD.
