      Pros

      Loan forgiveness is amazing. The legacy of the place is quite inspiring. The place is a wonderful stepping stone to investment banking. With the right leadership this could be an amazing place to work.

      Cons

      Leadership is inconsistent. The trading community is shrinking and membership is dwindling. Technology is horrible. The old guard there seem unable and unwilling to learn or get away from the old trading days. Diversity is rarely a consideration, and some of the old guard managers just plan and simply to be fired. Right now FINRA is directionless in the face of dire need. I hope they get their act and technology together.

      Great work life balance with a supportive and collaborative team. There are many opportunities to learn, both through jobs and training programs, making it a great place for professional development.

      Career advancement opportunities can be limited. Frequent organizational restructuring can also create uncertainty and make it challenging to plan the long term.
