Pros

Good exposure, good work life balance, and good benefits Good place to learn something although not as much as expected

Cons

Pay is a lot below industry peers for junior to mid level staff, lots of politics, values relationship much more than performance The structure of the firm is already fixed, so you will almost never move up unless someone leaves

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
