Business Outlook
Pros
In current environment, not likely anyone will by the investment bank, so as a company less worry of mass layoffs due to merger (once "final" round of layoffs are complete). Still has strong equities, tech IBD areas. If you live in southern CT, it's nice to live near work.
Cons
Slow decision making, very bureaucratic. Outside of core areas (front office, IBD) or key enabling functions (finance, risk) limited career options, esp. difficult to move across functional areas.
