Pros

Great people, sick time and vacation time, flexibility. Also if you’re willing to learn, there’s definitely room for advancement - you can post out to another position every year, and by doing so I was making 10k more than when I started.

Cons

Returning to office tracking. Work/life balance depends solely on your job level and what department you’re in. No bonuses and annual raises are typically a measly 2%

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.
