Pros

Mellon is an ok place to work. The starting salary is good, and the benefits are not bad either. My managers are very flexible as far as time off and not over extending too much past the 40 hour work week. The workload is reasonable.

Cons

Career development. Once you start working in a position it is very hard to get promoted up. They also tend to not give anything but the bare minimum for raises. Also because its a financial company, when the economy sucks, brace yourself as layoffs could be around the corner.
