Pros

FINRA really gives you a great deal of responsibility from an early stage in one's career. If you want a really in-depth job at how the finance industry works then this is the place for you.

Cons

The environment at the FINRA office is less than desirable - everything is political and 80% of the employees love to gossip the whole day so its hard to be efficient in this office when the person in the next cube is concerned with who cheated on who - blah, blah, blah
