Pros
Work and Life balance is great. Downtown location is very convenient for commuters. Friendly work environment, unlike some other Financial companies' snobby work environment.
Cons
Lots of politics involved in every project and campaign. Really, you cant do project management on your own with your own team, as the idea and even slightest details would have to come from VP or Senior VP. Very conservative in terms of creative campaigns, and even the choice of outsourced agency is decided by VP or CEO through politics. The company is also downsizing a lot of FT positions, preferring to hire Interns or short-term contractors.
