Pros

Work life balance good, especially if your good at your job more by working at home.

Cons

Good salary turns into a golden handcuff. Networking (or being someones pal) is the only way to progress internal jobs or promotion are never "interview" based if advertised at all. Managers with no professional experience - just decades in same company.....

Pros

Perfect Introduction to finance and the markets. Cross-asset training is encouraged throughout your time in analytics or sales. Great benefits and employee care in a social sense

Cons

Poor management in analytics. Not good at managing flow and preferences in moving from analytics to sales. Poor bonus culture, no commission structure in sales. Core terminal sales revenue model looks outdated and travelling expenses are ridiculous. You should travel because you can book valuable meetings. Not book useless, repetitive meetings because you have to travel 3 times a month
