Pros

generous benefits -- vacation time, health insurance etc.

Cons

Management completely top-down driven, no input from people lower on the food chain asked for or acknowledged. Salary is low compared to other Wall Street investment banks. IT is way behind the times and the upper management is clueless. Politics drives a lot of what goes on -- counts for more than what you accomplish for the company.

Pros

The benefit are decent and work life balance

Cons

Where do i start? There's no career growth unless you are French. The french only look out for each other and treat the others as peasant. It's just a frustrating environment overall.
