Pros

- team is full of cool people that care about doing quality work - not a lot of micromanaging on my team, very understanding - office is very nice with a cafeteria and free coffee bar - work is pretty easy and low stress

Cons

- constant repeal of flexibility. Forced 4 day RTO for no good reason - pay isn’t great, very tough to grow - lots of corporate buzzwords and feeding to shareholders (AI) than actually caring about employees - very monotonous, button-pushy work. Not great for career-driven people

Pros

Some of the internal platforms have dev teams that would rival any other tech company. Can learn a lot if you end up on one of those teams.

Cons

Completely crap shoot as to if you land on a good team or a completely incompetent one. If you're on a bad one good luck. On a bad team you can expect vague work requirements and huge work loads with unmanageable delivery timelines. Also they're outsourcing to India heavily. Also also, most senior management is completely out of touch with reality and don't understand the tech stack they own (more you interact with them the more frighteningly obvious it becomes). HR is completely incompetent, of course, it's an open secret at the bank.
