Pros

Company is in-flux, lots of changes, and hence lots of potential opportunities to move around and experience different types of working environments and new challenging assignments.

Cons

old gossipy culture of indecision, lots of committees and meetings, lots of backstabbing conversations in the hallways, too much politics... meets new top management from investment banking driving deep cuts and aggressive changes the investment banking style. Two cultures are clashing, changes are HUGE, and while the company may emerge victorious, lots of "bodies" along the way are inevitable. If you decide to join, have appetite for this and be prepared to jump.
