Pros

Good benefits, no match required for 401k

Cons

Poor work-life balance. You cannot even nap or sleep-in during weekends if you are working on a deal because people expect you to respond immediately. The team does not give clear guidlines on promotion criteria. There is an expectation to work/respond to emails on PTO. Even worse- even if the team knows you are going to be on PTO months in advance, they would still assign you work during the week of PTO.
