Pros

smart people to work with great brand and industry recognition global reach decent benefits good products and strong research focus

Cons

no real work life balance when your workload doubles due to turnovers pay is not related to performance as it is supposed to. having a good year sometimes could mean a flat or smaller performance bonus. so there is little motivation to deliver better performance top heavy corporate structure. career opportunities for any non-sales related poisons are quite limited. it also depends on which business you are in. the index business is better than others
