Pros

Excellent up to date technology, Diverse workforce, challenging issues to solve, environment is constantly changing due to changes in the global banking market, Generally good capable coworkers.

Cons

Too often the answer to technology issues is to just add more hardware, Projects can grow very complicated due to each area within the bank treated like a separate business . There is rarely a single solution on which everyone will agree. To often the work/life balance is tilted heavily toward work.

Pros

-location & team are important. I had an amazing team and location. Rare, but amazing for making money when aligned. -you can learn the financial industry -reputable company, great CEO -you are highly compensated to win over affluent families banking/wealth/lending relationships.

Cons

-we have 5 managers and each of them get replaced bi-annually. -The management hired does not know anything about finance, yet tasked to manage financial professionals. Zero standards for recruitment. Imagine this: An accounting firm is looking for a new accountant. The manager goes out and hires 5 "accountants" but not a single one of them is a CPA. You think, "how could this happen?" That's JPMC for you. -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS.***
