Pros

Fair work/life balance at lower levels, though I understand more senior levels have less flexibility. Collegial with fellow analysts, systems that provide for some efficiencies of scale. Opportunity for my work product to have some vast impacts on products.

Cons

Lack of cultural investment in outside-the-box thinking and employee engagement. "Efficiency" as a buzzword for systematic removal of creativity. Highly controlled environment with emphasis on making every peg fit in the round hole. One way communication from management, lack of transparency.

Pros

great work-life balance & flextime great colleagues ambitious firm-- focuses on exciting growth areas and apparently willing to invest in those businesses CEO is energetic and candid global presence

Cons

heavy on the paperwork to get any training, travel or expenses approved- it needs to go up 3 or 4 levels of management! not a lot of space for people with a good idea to 'run with it'-- everything needs to be pre-approved and scrutinized, meaning the company isn't exactly nimble and can't support thought leadership
