Pros

Lots of travel if you like. It can be an rewarding job with the right leadership.

Cons

Careful, most management is ruthless, which trickles down. When you are hired, be VERY clear as to you position. Many new hires leave Barclays within 3-6 months because the job to which they arrive is very different (junior) to the job they were promised. It is a strategic move on the part of management. As soon as you have a manager you respect, he/she will replaced with a lackey. I had four managers in three years - each rightfully more paranoid than the last. The individuals receiving promotion will be the ones you respect the least...
