Pros

There are absolutely no good reasons to work at Bank of New York Mellon. The place is a sweatshop full of incompetent managers and extremely unhappy employees.

Cons

Incompetent management; no opportunities for growth; salary substantially below market rate; there is really no upside to working at this organization; steer clear!

Pros

If you want a job without a lot of downtown, this is the job for you. When it is slow, its very slow.

Cons

The pay is very low and there is very little opportunity for advancemenet within the company. The hours are also not the best. I work 4pm-12am and there is no way I can change my shift.

Pros

The required work hours are only 37.5 hours with overtime for my department. Constant ongoing workload

Cons

Lack of professionalism within the work environment - I see employees sitting at their desk discussing issues while work is still needed to be completed.. Mid level management seems to cater towards certain employees, and not recognize employee effort.
