Pros

Hiring practices followed by HR, are above average if you compare with other Wall St firms.

Cons

This place is filled with in-competent and herd mentality people. These people go together in groups irrespective of capabilities. Someone with different ideas is not tolerated here. These group work together to create and preserve each others jobs.
