Pros

It is better than being unemployed

Cons

Low pay. Propaganda constantly spewed by senior management. Management talks a big game about telecommuting and other benefits but it is next to impossible to get them to allow it. Over my 9 year career at BNYM the company has gotten worse each and every year for 5 straight years. Promotions occur without much (sometimes no) increase in pay. Benefits have been reduced drastically, and "cost of living increases" are less than 2% each of the past 5 years, meanwhile executives of the company talk about the difficult economic environment while collecting record bonus figures and the company is buying back more than a BILLION dollars in company stock each year. It is a classless organization
