Pros

Strong competitive positioning of the bank vs peers. Emphasis on growth and creating transparent and scalable trading models from front to back office , with more robust risk metrics and projects to improve trade booking model and the like.

Cons

Having come out of an implosion and losses of 2009 , lots of new employees from competitor firms. Hard to tell who knows the bank well.
