      Pros

      Barclays trading floor is just like the trading floor of any other investment bank. If that is where you belong, then Barclays could be a good company to work for.

      Cons

      You do not receive much support as you try to find a desk that is willing to hire you. Network and work those connections to get hired by a desk.
