Pros

Ummm, let me think. Decent location in the financial district.

Cons

Where do I start...no culture. You have old Private Bank people that stick together and everyone else, post acquisition that feel aimless. Really poor moral and cooperation. Senior management communication and involvement pretty non-existent. Terrible technology and systems. Low salary for people that work hard and have great experience but don't fall into the favored category, for which I have yet to figure out how to get there. Blinders may help. Pay way under market. Company is just on auto-pilot and not in a good way. They just don't seem to have a clue as to what they are doing. All post acquisition people I talk to are not happy campers and management acts like they should be so happy and feel lucky to work there for reasons unknown. If I were to guess, if the job market stays strong, you will start to see a lot more of talented people that were hired in the last several years leave as this is not at all what was sold.

Pros

Good benefits. Close to train station if you’re in the Chicago locations. Hours are 9-5pm. There’s nice places to go eat around work too.

Cons

Diversity, is not part of this company. The private bank has been bought by CIBS which has made some changes to the company and to the employees. Old systems and a lot of older staff which makes it hard for new or recently graduates to bring in ideas to the table. In the wealth management department there’s a lot of micromanagement, in the interview they will they you they won’t but in reality they will.
