Pros

Great reputation in Wealth Management, which is their strength. History is solid and source of great pride for many employees.

Cons

Middle management is very weak; senior management out of touch; never spoke to Human Resources, who should be more involved in weeding out substandard employees; training is all done through the intranet, which is largely ineffective, but cheap for the company.

Pros

Interesting work helping clients grow their business. Promoted several times (it took a while). Most roles worked with many areas at the firm so it provided a holistic view of the organization, which was great.

Cons

Some managers created a difficult work environments. Those partners are no longer at the firm...but neither am I along with some talented people who left or were part of one of the a RIFs.
