Pros

Relatively relaxed atmosphere. Human-sized organization. Possibility to travel to HQ offices to meet colleagues in person. Holidays allowance

Cons

I can only speak about structured finance... Politics ruled. You could be bullied behind the scenes if you stood in the way of some managers. People (incl managers) rewarded according to politics, despite incompetence. Lack of access to top senior management. Compensation probably the worst in the sector, and if you complain their approach is make you feel you don't deserve more.
