Pros

European culture, work-life balance, conservative risk management which is proving to be a great upside in this market, invests in employee development, excellent benefits package, management is generally understanding and pleasant to work for as the company culture does not embrace the cutthroat approach of firms like Bear

Cons

Overly conservative to the point of beaurocratic, primary decision-making is with the Paris headquarters, underinvestment in the US, compensation has a lot of room for improvement, compensation also varies greatly among departments which leaves many employees disgruntled, there is some face time in certain departments
