Pros

Lots of opportunity for younger generation as older employees are retiring; flexible; good benefits; nice colleagues; opportunity to try different things all over bank; interesting work; genuine care for clients and integrity in service which is rare

Cons

Financial services generally are very competitive and so lots of politics to navigate, needs stronger experiential training, pay is soft unless you are a very high performer who pushes the issue, technology needs further updating, company is slow to remove problem managers and employees, like any big company you need to seek out resources and be proactive.

Pros

Interesting work helping clients grow their business. Promoted several times (it took a while). Most roles worked with many areas at the firm so it provided a holistic view of the organization, which was great.

Cons

Some managers created a difficult work environments. Those partners are no longer at the firm...but neither am I along with some talented people who left or were part of one of the a RIFs.
