Pros

The company is very healthy comparatively speaking. Of the numerous banks that were forced to receive TARP money, BNYM was one of the first to repay, as well as issue debt without the FDIC guarantee. BNYM has been a leader thus far in their category of being a "Banks' Bank"

Cons

While there seems to be adequate cash-flow due to BNYM recently acquiring certain smaller shops slightly outside their core business, the employees have not seen much of this splendor. After salaries being frozen, BNYM recently decided to also cut it Tuition Reimbursement from an industry leading 100% down to only 10k a year. While this is still a handsome reimbursement, the 100% is what I feel drew quality applicants. With this new development, they take the risk of losing quality employees.

Pros

The corporate culture of the bank is a joke. If you have half a brain and are willing to stay in the same department for years, there's a good chance you can become a VP.

Cons

Pay is horrible. Management is horrible. The entire place is a joke when it comes to working in Finance. Avoid at all costs.
