Pros

Prestige. Very ambitious and smart people. Always things to learn. Thorough review system and career development/mentoring (as long as you keep your eyes open).

Cons

Very long hours and weekends even compared to other investment banks. Could get aggressive. (As with other firms) Tend to get political as you move up higher. Sometimes too much emphasis on the 'perception/image' rather than the actual outcome/impact.
