do a great job of mentoring and development, want to keep analysts and are starting to promote to associate after 2 years, brand name and lots of requests from other jobs and PE to interview, protected Saturdays

Cons

long hours, as expected, but not as long as some others. Very bureaucratic (part of being in a large, multi-national bank in a heavily regulated industry
