Pros

Lots of great managers and colleagues in most locations. The breadth of jobs available in the firm means you can often find something you enjoy doing (depending on location).

Cons

They don't often hire remote workers anymore. Staying in a division or job and expecting to get promoted is very difficult—promotions are often had through moving to an entirely different part of the company or, oddly, leaving for a different company and coming back to a better role.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
