Pros

Best bond house in the world in terms of 1st year learning process (especially on the macro front) and brand recognition. Very flat hierarchy structure with some entrepreneurial possibilities. Very slim structure (similar to Morgan Stanley) which allows for significant exposure to investors/consultants

Cons

Geographical mobility is near-absent, internal politics and nationality seems to matter a lot more than skills, HR is very disorganized. Too much US-focused
