Pros
Others have complained about low pay but if you are talented you will get a nice increase on your way in. There are plenty of reasonable hard-working people in the company.
Cons
There are many. Someone else made this comment but it's not beneficial to be in any group other than broking. Some seriously brazen personalities who lack the ability to treat people with respect. The office environment could use a serious morale boost as well. Reporting increases in revenues and earnings without any appreciable change in culture or bonus potential doesn't help anyone. Finally, dead weight -- there is lots of it. Tons of folks near the top who seemingly do little of anything and plenty in the trenches who lead to huge fixed costs without a blip of productivity.
