Pros

Compensation, promotions, fancy titles and benefits, on site nurse, nutritionist, and gym (for a copay) - the experience of working for the number one firm on Wall Street is invaluable.

Cons

Long loooong hours, constant revolving door of people leaving, not enough subject matter experts as a result, required extra curricular work outside of your already insane schedule and stack of responsibilities, terrible culture of nothing but work- no lunch breaks, no flexibility without being looked down upon, mandatory 10+ hour days, I could go on and on
