Pros

Hiring practices followed by HR, are above average if you compare with other Wall St firms.

Cons

This place is filled with in-competent and herd mentality people. These people go together in groups irrespective of capabilities. Someone with different ideas is not tolerated here. These group work together to create and preserve each others jobs.

Pros

Friendly colleagues and responsive HR and recruiters once the process actually gets started. Some of the offices are nice but others are really run down. Management tries to be motivational and listen although their is often no interest behind it.

Cons

Terribly hierarchical and lack of challenging status quo. You often have to do things just because it has always been that way even if it wastes money and there are more efficient ways of doing things. Never question authority and do as your told.
