Pros

Great company to work if you are fresh from school. Easy people (mostly) during the interview process (Based in UK) Recommended if you want to jump IB afterwards.

Cons

Lots of demotivated people, most of the people working there want to work in banks but cant a) because they are not well prepared, b) because they burned out in IB and want to chill. Extremely repetitive task (mostly copy and paste) to update the terminal.

Pros

They are good to their employees, provide plenty of training, opportunities and benefits are on the more generous side.

Cons

It's become big and clunky and very slow to react - not as fast and agile as it used to be. Management structure is very flat so progression is relative, mostly sideways. Promotions are not always based on merit, so you have very young, inexperienced lower/middle management who excel at their roles as "Yes" men/women.
