Pros

Highly focused on knowledge dissemination and facilitates learning Values good work Top mgt across the world have an entrepreneurial culture Everyone from CEO onwards work very hard Good values and serious about delivering value to clients Pays better than peers but also expects top work from staff No ego at most levels

Cons

Too process oriented in all areas Letting go of lot of opportunities Too focused on investment mgt / asset mgt cos - should expand to other segments like banks, corporates and regulators Very understated - should turn on pace of creating buzz in emerging markets Some bit of avoidable politics Need to have better control on what goes on in India - quite a few who work only towards pleasing their bosses in other places without delivering real value
