Pros

You will always get another job in the industry with the PIMCO brand on your resume. If you were lucky enough to have worked there in the years before the tragedy unfolded (prior to 2013-2014), you were working with a truly top fund manager. The place now just trades on its old glory.

Cons

Top MDs only concerned about their multi million dollar bonuses Complete chaos in management strategies across all the different offices throughout the PIMCO global network - from the top this cascades down to portfolio management and people management
