Pros

There are some very nice people at BNYM and some very talented people. There are also some people in all my time there I did not know what they did. In a merchant bank they wouldn't last 5 minutes.

Cons

Quality staff retention policy. Slow moving not particularly strategic. A lot of politics. They don't seem to have a long term view and are not that dynamic in what is a dynamic world.

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.
