Culture declining, fast.

Pros

Some autonomy. Moral is low enough in so many different areas of the firm, it's easy to connect with someone new on your shared contempt for the decline of the firm culture.

Cons

Management remains clueless (or unwilling to change) despite being explicitly told of low moral issues. Positions are not being filled when someone leaves, putting more stress on the unlucky few who remain.

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Old proprietary technology. No acceptance of new ideas. Cliquish, arrogant culture. IT run by technologists who have no sense of business value or practicality. They're proud of their technical prowess but don't realize that they're a financial company, not a tech company. Management shows no leadership, inspiration or direction. They just let techies run the show and they created a monster.
