Pros

They are a powerhouse in the financial industry. The name is instantly recognizable and gives immediate basic credibility for the employee working there. Some great products and services when placed correctly.

Cons

COVID response was absurd. Requirements were unrealistic. Also, significant woke values make it problematic and often is at odds with the values of high net worth customers that I was actively seeking each day. Mandatory COVID testing if not vaccinated. Mask mandate significantly longer than other organizations. Mandatory after hours "Courageous Conversations" regarding George Floyd including an 8 minute moment of silence to replicate the amount of time he was kneeled on by the officer. I had to take a training specifically regarding my "white privilege" which was offensive and ridiculous. The social media oversight and requirements were very nitpicky which I have not had to face at other similar organizations. Pushing required pronouns in emails and other communications. Basically continuing to cater to the woke mob in every facet of the ignorant cause. No leeway or flexibility for those with different values.

Pros

Good work and life balance. People are typically friendly.

Cons

RTO was reinstated with bad communication (we found out through the news) and you will be forced to commute even if your team is not co-located with you. Coworkers of mine who were hired as remote were made to in-office, forcing them to move their entire family. You will still have to pay for parking / food at their cafeterias. Compensation will be lesser than if you joined a tech-firm doing the same work. Advancing your career will require you to 'jump ship' in-between different financial companies. It is very hard to advance normally. AI adoption is a must (which makes sense for MY job) but it's to the point where our annual performance is based on how much AI we use.
