Pros

Great benefits - 401k matching, great health insurance Free access to almost all museums in NYC Lots of opportunity for advancement Great work life balance

Cons

Really old and proprietary tech stack which has become burdensome. Most teams have a lot of legacy code written by people who've only ever worked at Bloomberg The whole talk about a meritocracy is all BS. Your manager is your judge, jury and executioner. If your manager likes you, then you're in good stead. If he/she doesn't, then you're screwed No real company vision
