Pros

Decent pay, convinient office location if you live in the city.

Cons

Highly political. Useless incompetent management, out of touch with reality, completelly deranged. Grab for power games within middle management, with zero pnl contribution. The whole operation is designed to steal your models / ideas / IP, and then redistribute internally with the help of a cheif scientist, as is has been done to multiple researchers and portfolio managers.
