Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn more about an industry that isn't always in the public eye.

Cons

If you are a lower-level employee (analyst, senior analyst) managers often look past you and only pay attention to pleasing senior management. Don't always get the attention that junior level employees receive at other companies.

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
