Pros

In current environment, not likely anyone will by the investment bank, so as a company less worry of mass layoffs due to merger (once "final" round of layoffs are complete). Still has strong equities, tech IBD areas. If you live in southern CT, it's nice to live near work.

Cons

Slow decision making, very bureaucratic. Outside of core areas (front office, IBD) or key enabling functions (finance, risk) limited career options, esp. difficult to move across functional areas.

Pros

Very minimal pros- you are working in a call center under managers with very little experience.

Cons

Managers are useless. The greater organization refers to the Wealth Advice Center as the “WAC”… yes…. wack. It has a double meaning and the advisors on the ultra high net worth teams are known to make fun of this call center. Very unserious role.
