Pros

Interesting work and friendly peers.

Cons

No appreciation for work done unless the managers can use it to make themselves look better. No opportunity to have opinions recognized by management. Their way is always the better way! No opportunity for advancement. Managers display a bias towards long term employees by placing a higher value towards new, often inexperienced staff.

Pros

Good pension plans If you're part of the inner circle, its a cushy job Location

Cons

If you're just starting your career, FINRA may be a good place to learn. They have good training programs and generally take good care of their employees. If you're an experienced professional, stay out. High levels of micromanagement Backstabbing galore Limited career opportunities No work from home policies Prima donna middle managers are out of touch with technology or people management Distrust, low morale, every person for themselves Most teams are waterfall, the Agile ones are at best Rupperfall People are treated like disposable resources
