Barclays Global Investors – “Re-org every 9 months”

Pros

Used to be prestigious. Relatively stress free. Work around 60 hrs/wk.
Casual, academic culture.
Friendly in the trenches. Great place to learn.

Cons

Poor performance. Low morale.
Senior management lacks accountability.
Every re-org shuffles the middle, while the top remains hopelessly.
Intellectually snobby (think Boston).
