Business Outlook
Pros
Formal debt/credit training and education especially if you have no prior knowledge/experience of debt/credit analysis. Professional development continues this theme by requiring all analysts to complete a certain number (dependent upon seniority level) of required classes/hours per year.
Cons
Recognizing the inherent need for a rating agency to adhere to regulatory compliance, there is excessive bureaucracy and processes even for a large organization. Negative connotations associated with the name given recent credit market developments. Definite lack of promotional prospects.
