Pros

Mostly good people, reasonable work-life balance, reputable company, employees have respect for the company, which is not common in the financial services sector.

Cons

incredibly divided company; management is passive aggressive and weirdly fractured and territorial. Important news and decisions are not consistently communicated downstream, there is a great deal of disconnect among management teams.

Pros

After the latest re-structuring and going agile, I don't find any. But before, a stable bank with a good book of work. Positive environment with support from your colleagues. Industry standard medical plan and vacations.

Cons

Bonuses and salary raises are hugely dependent on who you know in the senior management and how they perceive you rather than what you actually delivered.
