Pros

Extremely large and diverse product and service set. Seemingly competitive payscale. Plenty of openings & availabilities.

Cons

"To Big To Fail" in a nutshell. Extremely similar to Wells Fargo in both origin and styling. Constant mergers mean no stability or regularity on a regional level. Processes are extremely outdated and rigid. Policy does not allow for adaptation depending on branch layout, staffing levels, market area, regional need, or special circumstances. Branch network built around having few full timers who are required to work extreme hours, and several part timers who are expected to work varied and unreliable staffing schedules as determined by computer algorithm. Growth and advancement positions posted for extremely short periods of time, and given to individuals too quickly for many - if any - interviews to take place. Lack of cohesiveness and consistency across entire spectrum of departments. No centralized support network. Several departments responsible for "support" often send employees back and forth.
