Pros

Culture is starting to change, moving toward a more technology led investments company which is interesting and exciting to be a part of.

Cons

Change will take time, still pockets of mediocre performance within a small number of teams that needs to be driven out. Board of directors is not geographically diverse, it is very US-centric, which doesn't reflect BNY Mellon being a global firm.

Pros

There is real opportunity for career and skill growth. The company runs short on head count, so people willing to take on more responsibilities have avenues to progress. However, you will need to force the issue for promotions & large salary increases after you prove your capabilities. Realistically it'll take an external counteroffer to move the needle.

Cons

It's a large bank and you're a number in the system. If your NPV is positive you'll stay, else you'll be laid off. This includes both scenarios you control and those you don't. Ex. You control your performance, in office time and networking You don't control if your location is a strategic growth site, if a major client goes with a competitor, or if you'd be impacted by a general company-wide layoff plan.
