Pros

Global office presence. Strong brand in Indices and Risk. In general nice people, talented people will not stay for long.

Cons

Expenses are scrutinized heavily and make it a barrier for being productive. Middle management is ineffective, too many meetings, too much posturing, less real effective work done.
