Pros

Good work/life balance, salary is ok

Cons

Takes a while to advance salary wise, bureaucracy is gigantic and moves very slow. Talent level overall can be hit or miss. Some engineers are very smart, some not so much. Very closely adheres to Agile, which could be a plus to you - it's not for me. Not great vacation time.

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.
