Pros

large company, easy to slack off and no one will find out

Cons

on fi trading floor, very much an 'old boy network. you scratch my back, i scratch your back. ppl who were involved in the subprime/cdo crisis were not laid off. no one from in-business or independent risk was really touched. that just means that these are fluff jobs with no real power or oversight.

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
