Pros

Average employee here is sub-par and definitely not up to snuff compared to bulge bracket bankers, which means you can work at 30% capacity if you are well trained.

Cons

Senior managers do not keep their word or care about their team. Mid-level managers too scared to speak up for their juniors. Juniors left to die. Incompetent managers keep hiring and promoting incompetent junior bankers and let them run the show. Well trained bankers forced to pick up slack from said clown bankers. Rampant favoritism. Bank from hell. Avoid at all costs. Not a place to have a career, unless you don't have any self-respect.
