Pros

-It has some of the best and experienced reporters and editors covering various asset classes -Part of a large technology conglomerate that consistently gets revenue from corporates that manages their treasury (in-house bank) systems which are huge, unwieldy beasts that can't be easily replaced -It has lots of offices worldwide so it's possible that one can move across countries (however, I'd reckon it's more likely people in UK and Europe will move elsewhere than the other way aroudn)

Cons

-ION Group is an aggressive acquirer of assets that leads to cost-cutting, attempts at synergising solutions (that can't always be synergised) and departure of senior management professionals (who probably get a bonus to stick around for a certain time) -An Italian ex-bond trader CEO runs the show so it's unlikely that feedback will ever reach him -Some of the Acuris brands are stronger than others depending on the region so one really has to hope they join something that's respected within the market
