Business outlook
Pros
The best people here are world-class investors. Excellent brand recognition, especially in emerging markets. Extremely diverse workforce. You will travel and do transactions / assignments in places you never imagined.
Cons
Very bureaucratic-- especially as you become more senior. People spend too much time getting in each other's way, and playing politics. Promotion based on politics and tenure, less on performance. The best people (especially people whose nationalities give them mobility) gain experience and leave.
