Pros
Exposure to many industries Ability to learn on your own - as an employee you get access to all data sets, from syndicated to economic data, great resource for someone with interest in economics or finance Structured research process, detailed briefs and clear schedule International presence Laid back atmosphere Higher level management and sales people are actually quite eloquent
Cons
Lack of intellectual curiosity among many analysts Relatively low pay Office conditions could be improved The learning process pretty much stops after a year or so, few people with real industry experience or quantitative modeling skills The knowledge sharing between departments could be better
