Pros

Good salary. Nice building. Friendly colleagues (for the most part). Free snacks. Open communication.

Cons

You don't know what the REAL project requirements are until they are 3 days from due.

Have to work with stupid financial market conventions that make no sense.

The code written here is terrible, and nobody has the time to police it.

Advice to Management

Buggy code and an ugly, hard-to-use user interface have been trademarks of the company. You don't have to please clients one-by-one; establish your own standards on solid footing, and the clients will follow.
