It was OK, too bureaucratic and political for me.

Pros

If you are a woman they give you a good amount of maternity leave. I'm not a woman, so that was not so helpful for me.

Cons

They seem to make bad decisions about fire and hiring. The seem to get rid of the most expensive (and smartest) and replace them with someone cheaper.

Pros

Work life balance & holiday time Globally recognized investment banking experience POSSIBILITY of moving within the bank Availability of training for full time employees (not contractors)

Cons

Operations is not a good match for anyone wanting personal communication, particularly during the midst of headcount cuts in response to the financial crisis. Also, little team communication exists...people would rather email than walk down the isle on the same floor. Red tape; bureacracy
