Pros

Soundness of BNYMellon's business practices; technology innovation; good people to work with; strength of business model and balance sheet; challenging, diversified work; diversified business model

Cons

Normal large organization politics; how work is prioritized is not strong; focus too down appears to be driven by quarterly results; Board needs to be upgraded with more progressive thought leadership. Senior management not in alignment with technology strategy; not sure that Nexen strategy will work and is a big bet we're making

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.
