Pros

benefits, salary is near market rates with benefits making it a little better than some companies, they invest in training and education, great technology

Cons

lots of cost cutting and more to come, waiting is a requirement on every project, very few people have a true voice that management will listen to. the company is rife with politically savvy people, those that play it will or buddy up to the bosses get ahead, the rest have no hope, laterals are nearly impossible you have to already know how to do the new job and be a perfect match on paper.

Pros

They paid well with good benefits compared to others. They are not afraid to spend money on technology. They had a good, at least in my position, tried to have a good work/life balance.

Cons

My group was understaffed though which lead to issues. While not afraid to spend money on technology they don't always spend money to get more people to help support it.

Pros

Great commraderie between co-works and traders. not having to work weekends. flexible breaks. fast paced day.

Cons

company is too focused on cutting costs at the biggest expense of people. everything is going electronic. losing that personal feel that made the markets work.
