Pros

Global culture and exposure. Opportunity for lateral change into a variety of positions. Decent work life balance. Competitive pay for entry level.

Cons

Exodus of top talent. Remaining Sr. Management more concerned with personal job security. They should have retired, but are hanging on to recoup investments lost since 90% stock plunge. Continued downsizing leaves no room for talent to grow.

Pros

Opens. A lot of doors, a huge bank with real mobility. Great especially if you are young. And very global, which is exciting.

Cons

Can feel uncompetitive towards other bulge brackets at times, especially vs JPM, service and ops is incredibly painful, almost feels like you have to leave and come back to get paid market rate if possible at all. Its also IB vs everything else makes the bank feel two tiered.
