Pros

Access to any type of research you can imagine. Wall Street firm with a great reputation. Name recognition across the street

Cons

Office politics, weak middle management, confusing re-orgs are frequent, can feel too big, lack of sense that performance is rewarded (more about politics)

Pros

Respectable company, working with smart people for the most people.

Cons

Huge company, can be hard to navigate, almost impossible to get fired so good workers pick up slack for bad works. They need to trim fat faster and better
