Pros

Pay is great. Decent benefits. Some great people.

Cons

Culture of pushing problems on other people. The whole layoff situation is intense you see entire drones of people being fired. Lots of work for how much you get. No clear view of your career in the company. Old systems, overly restrictive compliance departments and no failsafes so things go wrong and it requires 50 people to fix things that should be simple.

Pros

Opens. A lot of doors, a huge bank with real mobility. Great especially if you are young. And very global, which is exciting.

Cons

Can feel uncompetitive towards other bulge brackets at times, especially vs JPM, service and ops is incredibly painful, almost feels like you have to leave and come back to get paid market rate if possible at all. Its also IB vs everything else makes the bank feel two tiered.
