      Limited Career Progression

      Pros

      Flexible work arrangements. Relatively competitive benefits (401K, retirement, health and insurance). Relatively stable company compared to other banks, although there was lay-offs, I felt safe given that I am a good performer.

      Limited career progression. Moreover, some of the promotions are arbitrary making employees question the process by which some managers are evaluated and promoted. We have many managers and very few leaders.

Departments are so risk averse that they are often not willing to do things which would ordinarily be part of their remit. Processes and Procedures are used to minimise risk, to the extent tha every minute error, even human error is over analysed and then proceduarlised. De

      Pros

      The commute to work is not bad.

      Cons

      The knowledge of some people amaze me at how they were able to get the job.
