Pros

If you are a director or md, great place to coast, get paid and delegate, everyone else be prepared to be overworked, and under compensated.

Cons

Silos, labels, change, not good change, change because Barclays and Goldman are changing so BNP has to change too, everything is outsourced, Probably the worst infrastructure on Wall Street, largest bank by assets in Europe yeah right, I have seen better IT in a high school, we constantly hire other banks trash and act as if it is treasure, BNP does that year after year. HR is a joke no written policies, make up the rules as they go along

Pros

Since it's a European Bank, the summer schedule is relatively lax. It's steady workflow throughout the year and the lower level employees are usually great to work with.

Cons

Management of Legal Department is horrendous. It's been a revolving door for years and management doesn't seem to care. Pay has been stagnant, the workplace is toxic due to turnover and the executive departments of the bank are always trying to cut corners/resources from an already depleted department.
