Pros
Some amount of freedom. You can actually do more or less nothing for a few years before anyone notice (as long as you do some minimal pretending) if this is considered a "pro".
Cons
Google "The routine of the hedge fund is just like a big whale eats" review in glassdoor, this comment describes the nature of "research" there quite well. Apart from that, most of the company culture I encountered showed lack of integrity, lack of basic understanding of statistics, or both. It is a very political environment, in the bad sense of the word. I guess that it wasn't always like that, but the few good people that I knew who were still doing research there were highly unhappy or already left. Absurdly long non compete.
