Pros

I can not think of a pro

Cons

Their attendance policy is harsh, points you no matter what even if you have a special needs kid that needs to attend Dr. Appointments, I was hired on and was told as long as I brought in a note from the doctor it wouldn't be a problem, well it was and I had to quit because they pointed me for every last appointment without knowing about it until I was 4/8 points, no FMLA until 1250 hours worked, not climate controlled the temps got into 130 inside this summer.

Pros

Paychecks dont bounce, high turnover, safety concerns are fake, promised profit sharing is suddenly, inexplicably denied at last moment.

Cons

No future, high pressure workload, incomplete training, crappy insurance you pay for, those in charge are the only properly paid employees.

Pros

Ability to enter Global Capital Markets industry without prior finance or business education. International company with over 150 years of business relationships across the world. Several niche areas across multiple business platforms. Overtime paid to Salaries Non-Exempt workers. Little to no union presence. Some telecommuting.

Cons

Old company, old fashioned, industry does not generally change quickly. Spinning off into three separate companies later in 2016 so hard to know how each will perform as stand alone entities. Health benefits are not better than the Marketplace and vacation/sick time does not accumulate. Secondary benefits change from year to year making these benefits hard to value, (i.e. Tuition Reimbursement, 401k match, ESOP, etc.)
