Pros

Stimulating enviroment which despite the public set backs still has enormous franchise power. The PR is probably 6 months behind the business at the moment

Cons

Biggest challenge is to overcome the brand damage. In investment banking the client has to feel that they are getting the best, blowing up your own balance sheet is not a good start

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
