      While BNYM is a good place to work, there needs to be a strategy to retain young talent and really teach them to grow.

      Pros

      Good hours, more laid-bank atmosphere for a bank, good location. There aren't too many young people working there so if you do a good job you can really get noticed. If you are a high performer you can rotate to other areas of the business but i'm not sure how easy it is to do that.

      Cons

      Not much room for growth, people do not share their knowledge and really train and grow people. Management is ultra conservative so while the atmosphere is laid-back, it feels like personality is compromised at the same time.

      Pros

      It is a good working experience if you enjoy working with foreign trade etc. There are a lot of departments and everyone should have a chance to work within or be familiar with them. It doesn't give employees a realistic perspective of what it is like to work in foreign trades and other things bank of new york is known for. They have so many worldwide locations so the chances of one ending up in a different city are rare to none, it is disappointing, they should have more cross training amongst departments and ability to go to another office if one desires

      Cons

      Too little chance of moving up the ladder and getting promoted fast. The training given is the absolute worse method. You have to sit deskside to someone who has been here for six months or more, its kind of annoying if that person is in a senior position because they have that ego booster already and they have been here for too long so its hard to get adjusted to that. Vacation time is only 2 weeks no matter what tenant position you hold, three weeks after 12 months should be given as most companies do anyways. MORE VACATION TIME!

      Desperate times call for desperate measures; working here is an act of desperation.

      Pros

      Financially stable company in a very tough economy.

      Cons

      Dehumanizing treatment of contractors. Contract employees are given the worst of everything and treated as though they are completely unvalued. Management acts like they are doing a favor for the employee by allowing them to work there, simultaneously treating contractors as though it is their own fault for not being full-time employees.
