Pros

The corporate culture of the bank is a joke. If you have half a brain and are willing to stay in the same department for years, there's a good chance you can become a VP.

Cons

Pay is horrible. Management is horrible. The entire place is a joke when it comes to working in Finance. Avoid at all costs.

Pros

The senior leadership team was very impressive (more so than local leaders) and understood the effort required to build a local office culture aligned with the corporate culture of BoNY. BoNY also offered a reasonable work schedule and I enjoyed a good work-life balance.

Cons

Transforming an organization's culture is a long process and the Houston office has too many A&M alumni and functionally weak VPs from Chase's former CDO business to appeal to outsiders. Some VPs acted as if they were still at A&M or Chase...what a pity. Also, the low-walled cubicles made the office feel more like a call center than a professional environment.
