Pros

This has been the worst place to work in my career. Avoid especially if you are a junior.

Cons

Pay is very low, no career progression, management in London is totally dependent on NY and really have no say.

Pros

Supportive firm-wide culture; competitive pay; surrounded by some of the smartest people you'll ever meet.

Cons

Like most banking jobs, incredibly long hours. Group specific: culture can be poor / not well supported, poor organization / staffing at group level.
