Pros

I have found the environment to be meritorious for good people with good ideas. It is easy to look good if you want to improve things, given the large amounts of inefficient processes that need to be addressed. The issues with the financial markets have made the company focus on promoting internally people that are looking to construct a better business.

Cons

One has to accept that there are poor processes in these businesses with many legacy systems, so you have to be able to come to negotiate some parts of the organisation that lack efficiency.

Pros

Company culture is good. depending on the area/team, you have a chance of keeping a reasonable work/life balance.

Cons

Internal mobility is limited. Appraisal process is changing all the time, still haven't found a way to make it objective.
