Pros

- Free coffee - A manageable workload - You’ll have an ok time at this company if you have a manager who’s transparent, communicative and believes in a healthy work life balance. However this can only go so far in shielding you from the ridiculous and rigid policies implemented from the top.

Cons

- Stuffy overly corporate offices - High deductible health insurance plans disguised as an improvement from previous ones - overly strict ‘flexible’ work arrangements resulting in termination if not met perfectly - Important changes to work arrangement policies are put into effect with no official communication or with intentional lack of clarity - Limited advancement opportunities. Goal setting and end of year conversations are meaningless time sucking processes. ‘Meets expectations’ is the highest grade you can hope to achieve and promotions are only given out to those who meet arbitrary criteria

Pros

Some of the internal platforms have dev teams that would rival any other tech company. Can learn a lot if you end up on one of those teams.

Cons

Completely crap shoot as to if you land on a good team or a completely incompetent one. If you're on a bad one good luck. On a bad team you can expect vague work requirements and huge work loads with unmanageable delivery timelines. Also they're outsourcing to India heavily. Also also, most senior management is completely out of touch with reality and don't understand the tech stack they own (more you interact with them the more frighteningly obvious it becomes). HR is completely incompetent, of course, it's an open secret at the bank.
