Pros

- Great flexibility, people can work from home with the proper arrangements, there isn't *too much* bigotry towards later starters. - Career progression, moving to other teams. - Change management are very helpful. - Nice building.

Cons

- Fellow developers will shank you in the back. - Expect to be thrown under the bus frequently. - Play the game or be prepared to look like an under-deliverer. - Seriously Machiavellian. - Some team members will aggressively steal all the work to look good on their performance reviews. - Agile is used as a monitoring tool. - Agile is used to dictate process, not focus on people. - People will stare at your screen in the most unsubtle way when talking to you, to make sure you're not slacking off. - Intolerant and arrogant senior developers. - Focus on process kills delivery to the business.

Pros

Great culture, Flexibility, Nice building, Talented people, strong processes and always evolving tech stack.

Cons

Sometime work can be monotonous, if you are stuck in a team for long time. Finding opportunities to move across teams, you have to fend for yourselves, people leaders too busy or aloof to help.

Pros

What you put in is what you get out, smaller nimble bank - more opportunity for growth within company

Cons

Regional bank so limiting for opportunities outside of the company - not an easy transition
