Pros

Great experience if you're interested in Corporate Trust. Depending on the team you work with middle managers do try to push you to experience new things (i.e. deal closings, liquidations, etc). Coworkers are friendly and willing to help one another.

Cons

It has been my experience that it is extremely hard to get promoted, especially within a team. Senior management doesn't seem to care about losing good people to other companies, which makes everyone feel as though senior management doesn't care about anyone.

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.
