Pros

Work / life balance. The ability to flex your schedule is helpful for working parents. However, the work ethic is generally weak as the bonus structure is not well defined.

Cons

Senior Management is out of touch! Within senior management, frustration mounts with poor operating performance. There is too much internal back stabbing and 50 S was not like this under the previous CEO. The rank and file are waiting for the Board to turn over the 3rd floor.

Pros

Very good work/life balance and good benefits. Friendly work environment and plenty of good people who would go out of their way to get the job done right.

Cons

Conservative business model from an old school Chicago bank. Depends on what you're looking for in this point of your career. Compensation is not very competitive in the industry.
