Pros

Work-life balance. Ability to tele-commute. Able to purchase an additional week of vacation. Hard to do a bad job when surrounded by your average peer. Shopping at Target during lunch.

Cons

They have a low starting salary, but tell you it is a 35-hour/week position, then expect 45 hours minimum. Although you can balance work life, this is at a trade off of job growth. Most staff are career clerks that have been with the factory for 20 to 30 years. BNYM is looking to move out of metro New York; limited future.

Pros

Get experience in asset management, learn how an investment firm works. Like all big companies, it is a going concern that has nice benefits.

Cons

No mobility, No candor from management, very political and restrictive environment.

Pros

The atmosphere is fairly laid back and depending on the group there seems to be a decent amount of younger people being hired from straight from college.

Cons

Our merit increases are delayed for 3 months this year. So that would definitely be the biggest con I can see.
