Salary was good, lots of really really smart people who worked there, great education in financial markets and (was) a blue chip name for resume

Cons

Not a nice environment to work. Management were target and short term driven, no focus on the franchise or the long term

Pros

Great benefits and work/life balance if you're on the right team.

Cons

Having a bad manager dictates everything about your job. You will see no upward mobility or compensation improvement if you are under a poor manager.
