Pros

Modern Tech Stack most of time on teams. Good 401k match and benefits.

Cons

Performance Management 8-15% pip twice a year, everything revolves around not getting pipd. Tech skills slowly fade. People create things for performance management, most things are already solved, its a bank after all not a tech company.
