Pros

Interesting work, good people, good salary

Cons

BNY Mellon has been on a RIF/cost cutting and forced performance ranking for past 2 years under former CEO Scharf. many good people terminated throughout company. yet managers hired in NYC at higher salaries. Only hope is that new interim CEO realizes mistake and takes more measured approach

Pros

After the latest re-structuring and going agile, I don't find any. But before, a stable bank with a good book of work. Positive environment with support from your colleagues. Industry standard medical plan and vacations.

Cons

Bonuses and salary raises are hugely dependent on who you know in the senior management and how they perceive you rather than what you actually delivered.
