Pros

interesting jobs (especially if you work as an equity or mutual fund analyst) flexibility and lots of time off, such as sabbaticals every 4 years, time off at your discretion with most people taking about 4 weeks off per year; good benefits, especially health insurance, the hours are reasonable, most people get off around 5PM, it's not your typical finance job hours. Also, flexible hierarchy and advancement comes by merit, if you do well then you will be promoted. Also, people hired are pretty decent people, and there are opportunities to go abroad if you want. Morningstar also gives you free bagels

Cons

Lower relative salary compared to other finance jobs
