Pros

Good employee resource groups, especially for LGBTQ and women employees.

Cons

There are many lifers, or long term employees, in the Global Markets division. The sales and trading program for incoming graduates cultivated a culture where people didn’t take 100% responsibility, they learned they couldn’t speak authentically and they didn’t need to keep to agreements. They have only known a firm where withholding truth and manipulating what you say to manage outcomes is the norm. They don’t know how great working life can be at a different firm or even a different industry.
