Pros

- free food in the cafeteria - nice office building - looks good on your cv - some exposure to finance - benefits are okay

Cons

- looong hours even in training - really really old technologies used, and java script! - a huge base of legacy code which is a pain to deal with - not enough libraries, code base, documentation from past, similar projects that could be used, you end up doing everything yourself, again - you have to program on the bloomberg terminal, which is a pain
