Pros

Collaborative culture in technology, exposure to international teams, benefits package, good pay, emphasis on workplace flexibility at least in my group, large incoming new analyst class so it gives you a large network to utilize, early exposure to many aspects of the industry and large-scale challenges faced even at the entry level, and a great emphasis on continued training and community involvement.

Cons

Longer work hours (50+), not as creative as other industries like entertainment or non-finance-based business, hard to move from one division to another, a very self-segregating culture, and easy to feel inferior when compared to revenue-generating divisions.

Pros

The firm encourages and supports to change teams, which is helpful in expanding experience or moving away if you aren't happy with your team

Cons

The promotion has become very opaque lately. They hardly give out promotions, but make you slog and overwork the whole year in the name of it. Basically, you have worked 200% and made to look like a fool by the end of the year.
