Pros

Learning, work life balance to a certain extent, sound policies and procedures. Opportunities to move laterally and vertically. Training and employee growth.

Cons

Bureaucratic, top down approach, Heirarchy, red tape. Management has a long way to go in terms of leading the organization in this volatile, ambiguous, and chaotic business world. They are still stuck in their age old beliefs.

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.
