Pros

Can not think of any.

Cons

To many to share in this limited space. I can only speak for the Oriskany NY office. Run run run away, do not take a job here. They do not value people that have worked for them for over 20 years, shipped anyone grandfathered into the pension right out the door like their knowledge and experience doesn’t matter one bit. People that sacrificed time with their families to make sure that all payments and compensation for 9/11 was processed. People that gave up weekends and holidays that they can never get back. There is no work life balance in this awful place.

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.
