Pros

Training is great. It is good to see what other departments are doing. You have monthly meetings where you are updated about what the company happenings are and where we stand as an office.

Cons

Low Pay, and no chances of advancement. I worked there for 4 Years and was in the same role, although people got promoted the salary still remained the same.

Pros

There is real opportunity for career and skill growth. The company runs short on head count, so people willing to take on more responsibilities have avenues to progress. However, you will need to force the issue for promotions & large salary increases after you prove your capabilities. Realistically it'll take an external counteroffer to move the needle.

Cons

It's a large bank and you're a number in the system. If your NPV is positive you'll stay, else you'll be laid off. This includes both scenarios you control and those you don't. Ex. You control your performance, in office time and networking You don't control if your location is a strategic growth site, if a major client goes with a competitor, or if you'd be impacted by a general company-wide layoff plan.
