Pros

Some of the people that you meet and work with are great at their jobs. The benefits package available is very good, allowing you to pick and choose what take.

Cons

Don't get too comfortable - on average you will move desk/office 3 times a year Departments change (merge/de-merge/etc) at the whim of management. On more than one occasion teams have been split only to reform months later when management realize why it existed in the first place. Cost cutting to produce cost savings are ridiculous (obtaining a pen or pad requires a managers authorization). Management are very reluctant to share information with employees - in recent times an article in the FT appeared before employees were aware that there were merger talks happening

Pros

Decent benefits, nice co-workers, some international travel, and modern offices. I loved having unlimited sick time but never abused it.

Cons

This is thoroughly a British company. All key leadership is in the U.K., and they rarely visit American offices. This company is notoriously cheap and cost cutting always wins the day. All U.S. offices are simple satellites to the U.K. corporate offices. Let’s be real, if you are a U.S. employee, don’t expect to be paid well, don’t expect a decent raise, don’t expect development nor advancement, and do not expect the C-suite or division leaders to listen nor care. You are a cog in a machine which is designed to facilitate the offering of low quality information products and services to the U.S. market as a way to soak up as much public and private dollars as possible.
