Pros

If you are in infrastructure roles like IT, Finance, Risk - then work life is good. Paid leave of 5 weeks + 2 personal days and sick days. Colleagues are friendly and there is a good social network around you. Base compensation and benefits are above par ( meaning they will beat JPM, MS etc for most new hires). Internal mobility in some teams is good.

Cons

Lack of compensation and growth once you lock yourself inn. This leads to frustration and lack of engagement amongst people who have been on job for say 4 or more years. Lousy systems and very slow decision making by management. Heavy push to move more jobs to India from the investment bank ( and just me the 24hr time difference doesn't work well when resolving issues)
