Pros

J P Morgan Chase is clearly a leader in the industry. It uses its strength to batter competitors and develop new platforms which its competitors must compete with or fail. Branch operations are the most secure jobs in the company. You better love sales or you will not succeed in this organization.

Cons

If you look to advance your career beyond the regional level, be prepared to move to OH, NY or RI. Salaries for these areas are fair but if you come from high cost areas on the West Coast, you will be disappointed. Advanced degrees are very helpful, but the school's name is more important.

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.***
