Pros
Stable, solid company with very strong investment management expertise and experience. Lots of very talented people. Traditionally the culture was a great strength for this company, providing a workplace of trust, promotion from within and career opportunities.
Cons
Culture in divisions other than the investment division has been eroded by growth and by bringing in a lot of senior level individuals in key positions with values and approaches very different from previous leaders. Opportunities for promotion from within are much more limited, there is less trust between levels of the organization and groups, and many capable people have left in recent years. Organization has become much more bureaucratic and political, and it is hard to get things done.
