Pros

Exposure to people and cultures around the world In many orgs, if you work hard, and show commitment, you can grow your responsibilities and get promoted. If you have a strong, supportive manager, things can be great. 388 Greenwich building renovation, nice new facilities.

Cons

-Ego-driven, political, and very competitive. Many people think more about what a project can do for their career, rather than how it can help the company or team. -Teams and individuals compete against each other, rather than market competition. -Not enough movement or diversity in senior leadership ranks. People stay put for many years, leading to stagnation in culture and ideas. -Extremely limited resources and a lack of prioritization across businesses. As a result, many poor quality work products are delivered, and business goals are not achieved. -Many employees are overworked and stressed due to lack of resources and prioritization. -Corporate title structure and related power dynamics are a massive culture driver. There isn’t adequate validation of business initiatives. If an MD thought of an idea, it’s taken as gospel.
