Pros

Everyone is expected to roll their sleeves up and get their hands dirty. Hands-on environment allows the opportunity to learn a lot.

Cons

I found co-workers less than willing to show a new colleague the ropes, more like "here's where you can start to look" or "here's someone else you can ask about that".

Pros

Lots of client exposure Learning unique products Aladdin

Cons

Too much politics in the team. Nobody stays for more than 2 years. Also they like you as long as you do their job. The moment you ask for a raise or a change they immediately intentionally make your life difficult
