Pros

I got to work with some really great people in other departments. The location of the office was nice and centrally located. Work life balance is good and easy going. Also, banker holidays are a nice perk.

Cons

There is not a lot of career advancement opportunities so don't expect anything fast. There are a lot of people who have been there for 10, 20+ years and are just trying to coast to retirement so that does not help. Also the management leaves a lot to be desired and the corporate culture is somewhat toxic with a lot of favoritism and a lot of shunning of new ideas. The company just keeps adding more layers of management that makes it more difficult to get things done. Management in my department was really disorganized and generally not approachable.

Pros

It's a great entry level job to start with to gain some experience to qualify for better positions

Cons

Way too sales oriented. I felt really uncomfortable shoving credit cards down people's throats who certainly didn't need them.
