Pros

a person gains a lot of experience, training, knowledge, and expands network. Decent bonus

Cons

Some of the managers are bi-polar, pressure is put on employees without a cause. A memo could sit for months on a manager's desk, then when it comes back to the analyst the memo becomes an emergency. The environment can be awkward and politicized sometimes. Basically, if you get a good manager, you will like the job, if you get a bad manager, you will hate the job.

Pros

Compensation and bonus. Good benefits. Flexible work arrangements available. Traveled to some fun locations.

Cons

If in district office, path to management is limited and very competitive. Examinations used to be about going quality work and protecting investors, now it's about getting examinations done as fast as possible.
