Pros

Great vacation and benefits package

Cons

Highly unprofessional and unintelligent people at the VP/AVP level. The compensation is significantly below market rate(by about 25%). Takes about 2 months to have access to your systems. IT is a joke.

Pros

It's a lot of work, and you'll spend a lot of time at the office-- but compared to the other banks on the street, the work-life balance is fantastic. Management cares about you and your needs. Big international bank, meaning there is a lot of room for growth, but being in the NY office, it's is small and your growth and successes are noticed.

Cons

Lots of turnover. Need to invest a lot of hours.

Pros

Exposure to French culture....you then know you are nothing ;-/ Good health benefits and policies

Cons

Focus on minutiae Over-value of French Employees Devalue of American employees An employee needs to remain in their role two years before moving internally, so if you sense say after 6 months of joining that the role is not a good fit, you may have to make the decision to leave the organization at that time when maybe you could have found another role internally (if policy had permitted). A policy like this leads to high turn over and employee dissatisfaction (because you know you have to leave or give 2 years worth of your life......)
