Cons

Poor Management and managers in certain groups, mostly yes men to mgmt, no structure or organization or career path/training, favoritism among certain teams and managers, reduction to tuition reimbursement program recently, MASSIVE EXPENSE REDUCTION PROGRAMS and LAYOFFS. Not like it used to be and getting worse...

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
