Pros

None; except that walk-up call to all the good conscious US employees to find better home for respectful professional treatment and equal opportunity growth like any other normal institutions

Cons

- layers of Brit in top management (who particularly have no / little interest in development of local talented employees) entertwined with layers of Germany top/ mid management in very small branch - very immature leadership and rigid management style completely lack of conviction, vision and qualification esp in building and running US business in current US regulatory environment - little/ no respect and trust for local employees with jokes about hair styles, dressing code, occasionally work flexibility need due to inclement weather - only support the career development those with Brit/ German connectivity at the expense of US employees. Those who are good left for much more respectful firms - little comp adv for sure
