Pros

They are a good company to learn a great deal of detail from. You will also likely move through several groups on your way up the corporate ladder.

Cons

At the first sign of trouble all those "great" people turn in to ruthless politicians.

Pros

The coworkers are generally nice, but information sharing could be tricky in competitive situations.

Cons

Compensation is abysmal if you don't work on the Alpha team; talk to anybody at Risk Management, Finance, Operations, IT and you will get the idea. I left for a bank and received a large raise.
