Pros

Big bank and wealth management franchise creates opportunities at scale, especially in terms of soft client flow

Cons

Culture is extremely risk averse and toxic, traders are unskilled relative to other banks as they lean so heavily on client flow only, without an ability or mandate to take on risk intelligently. Systems outdated. Integration with credit suisse an absolute mess with many toxic power plays and missed opportunities.
