Pros

A very comfortable place to work and stay at. There are basically two levels at Nuveen, graduate degrees/CFA's (front office / management) and undergraduates (back office and some sales). This is pretty typical and obvious for those who want to work hard and make a great living; the opportunities are available there. I would recommend Nuveen to any person pursuing a career in investments.

Cons

If you are motivated and push yourself to obtain investment license's and your graduate degree the sky is the limit. Otherwise you'll wither away in your cube. Push yourself, this company is a winner if they ever break free from MDP.
