Pros

Good benefits, flexible work schedule

Cons

Poor pay, slim career movement, 1% merit increase if any, promotion with no monetary raise, does not reward for top performance, inability to make right decision therefore layoffs happen quite a bit, so much politics around it's actually getting in the way of running a business, upper management is so shortsighted

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.
