Pros
Currently the industry is making money hand over fist, which results in a good feeling of job security. The other associates are very friendley and easy to work with.
Cons
If you are an innovative, forward thinker this place may not be for you. ABC is a very cost conscious company. If you want the horse and pony show, you will not get it here. Much of the old boys and girls school is prevelent. The lack of competency in the directors and above is a bit scary and sometimes you will even find some of these people do not have bachelor's degree as they were grandfathered in from the merger. Like I said above it can be a very frustrating place to work, as new ideas and forward thinking are not embraced. The focus is not to be an employee centric and engaging place of work, rather let's make as much money as we can, with little spend (and this includes raises and promotions).
