Pros

The Brand though it has been tarnished as a result of the financial crisis is still world renowned. Moreover, the infrastructure, support and technology is awesome. there are a lot of very smart people that work here.

Cons

Old boys club management in the Investment Bank, that's why they lost 50 billion during the melt down. there has been some cleaning up but the old guard is still there in Stamford CT.
