Great Place to Start
Pros: Great pay and bonus for starting analysts right after college. Strong company that truly best-in-class professionalism. Exciting work with community heavy-weights. Great brand that competitors recognize. Many benefits and perks. Great team environment.  You really feel like you're at the top of finance.
Cons: Overly-conservative. People will judge you on everything and individualism is not encouraged at all. You are at the mercy of the bank when it comes to location and work-life balance (although much more flexibility is given at commercial bank). You are expected to know your stuff when you come through the door. Little support is given to help you if you're not.
