Pros

In Barclays New York, there are great networking events with WiN and WiT. Salaries are quite generous compared to competitors.

Cons

Very weak management. Technology sector is collapsing. Projects constantly put on hold an moved to the UK. Benefits are lacking for such a big bank. Health insurance is Blue Cross Blue Shield which is not the best and not accepted everywhere. Business and Technology are laying off and displacing employees constantly.
