Pros

Great brand name within finance. Amazing office location. Nice offices. Hard to come up with 20 words of positivity.

Cons

Intense, unfriendly environment day to day. Unsupportive of time off of ANY kind. Neurotic senior management with unreasonable expectations -- armies of Miranda Priestlys. Multiple people had mental breakdowns/hospitalizations from exhaustion due to overworking, and management + HR still turned a blind eye. Bonuses are minuscule compared to other places on the street. It's just not worth it.
