Pros

Wonderful people to work with, great deal of talent. Good life/work balance programs, flex time. Great opportunity to merge two companies/product sets.

Cons

Surprising that so many of the legacy Bank of New York employees are so negative towards the legacy Mellon employees, especially those who have been there for a long time. "Lifers" have a lot of talent and dedication to bring to the company and not all are complacent. It seems that from many of the New York comments, they seem to be less willing to work as a team with the legacy Mellon employees. The legacy Mellon employees are making an effort to work with the New York employees as a team.

Pros

In this crazy economy, those you have a job are lucky.

Cons

In this crazy economy, the company knows that employees consider themselves lucky to simply have a job. Salaries are a reflection of that knowledge.

Pros

Solid company, relatively unscathed by meltdown, good reputation.

Cons

Large and impersonal, feels like "The Office" at times. Difficult to get things done. Lots of "red tape."
