Pros

Very smart people Good benefits Well known firm in finance

Cons

Those smart people are out to get you - managers are compensated by how well they fire people. Sooner or later, one of your many managers will have it out for you and there will be no escape. Conpensation used to be good to make up for the crazyness, but they've been cutting costs and pretty much pay market now. Not worth it. Overall the worst place to work in America...and I can bet you the 5 start reviews are a part of their recruiting trick
