Pros

No fixed time to be in the office by (depends on the workload). Some bright and experienced people to work with. Gaining experience at finance-related processes. Lots of young talent so if you are below 30 you will feel at home.

Cons

Very proprietary technology and software. Gained development experience may not necessary make you more marketable. Quite large amount of poorly written legacy code to maintain. Lots of processes to follow. Some long meetings feel unnecessary. At the same time, feels like a startup, somewhat disorganized inside. Frequent management changes, noticable politics. Compensation seems below average in the area.

Pros

Smart, driven individual contributors that make coming in to work worth it. People at the working level are generally friendly and collaborative. Good benefits and great sabbatical program

Cons

Management that is more concerned with empire building than delivering great products and their people's work satisfaction; bureaucracy and "process" delay time time to market
