Pros

I got a paycheck. Sometimes I could work from home. Benefits were okay.

Cons

It’s a lean machine and the current CEO is determined to make it leaner, which means staff is stretched to the hilt. They also insist on open workspace, and forced curve performance analysis of employees, which creates a cut throat environment. I didn’t trust a single coworker.

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.
