Pros

1. You get a chance to get your hands dirty on new tech stack. 2. Company acknowledges and awards innovation.

Cons

1. No work-life balance. Only work, no life 2. Most of the delivery managers are non-techy... they end up committing deadlines to PO which very hard to achieve. 3. As said in point-2, since most of the managers are non-technical, the appraisals are good only if either you are a bootlicker or if the bootlicker is your friend. The DM are not in position to evaluate the engineer based on his/her knowledge. 4. Bonuses can be as high as £19000 or as low as £1000 per annum 5. Hardly any scope for growth if you are not part of any lobby !!!

Pros

-location & team are important. I had an amazing team and location. Rare, but amazing for making money when aligned. -you can learn the financial industry -reputable company, great CEO -you are highly compensated to win over affluent families banking/wealth/lending relationships.

Cons

-we have 5 managers and each of them get replaced bi-annually. -The management hired does not know anything about finance, yet tasked to manage financial professionals. Zero standards for recruitment. Imagine this: An accounting firm is looking for a new accountant. The manager goes out and hires 5 "accountants" but not a single one of them is a CPA. You think, "how could this happen?" That's JPMC for you. -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS.***
