Pros

Stability and security. These folks were the safest place to weather the financial crisis--unfortunately that's because they were too slow to get involved in the parts of the market that exploded, not too smart.

Cons

The company culture is toxic and rewards people who quietly block forward motion as they are never held accountable. Many managers seem to feel the answer to any questions is "status quo." They don't recognize what makes a top performer and so they are never valued or rewarded.

Pros

Stable work life balance. The culture is really great, very easy to work with complex management and managers. Willing to help you grow and learn with clients

Cons

Not a lot of room for growth unless you come in the door with that expectation. It can be very easy to get stuck in this role as your pay slowly increases and the job title mostly stays the same. Associate promotions and raises are rarely given and take a lot of coercion to get.
