Pros

The company provides great opportunities to learn about all aspects of the finance sector. They have great training available to their employees, and if you are willing to look promotions from lower levels into low level management come quickly.

Cons

In order to get into upper management it is all about who you know and where you went to school. the firm would never admit it, but if you look at the educational background of upper management 90 to 95 % are Ivy league, so if you have your eyes on upper management, and you didn't go to an ivy league school chances are slim you will get there.
