Pros

Great exposure to how the securities regulation industry really works. You get to see how politics and laws impact the things you do every day. The assignments are interesting and really challenge you. You are encouraged to attend any meetings, lectures, or social events to get to know people in the office.

Cons

Your exact office location is a little isolated.
