Pros

My first job out of college was at JP Morgan as a program manager. It was a good place for growth and development internally. It was also a good place to get my feet wet with such little experience that really boosted my resume to help in future endeavors. Coworkers were friendly and easy to get along with. Lower management was a breeze to work with. Upper management was a little intimidating, but managed employees and structure well.

Cons

The hours are not flexible.

Pros

1. One of the best banks, heavy on tech and AI, that makes my life simple 2. Bonus is consistent every year 3. The company is highly social and multicultural. 4. A lot of training program to upskill and develop.

Cons

1. A lot of administrative items to take care of, a significant portion is spent on meetings, meetings are called to establish an agenda for next meetings, and so on. 2. Layoffs, all year round- sometimes significant, while in the middle of delivery. If your manager is off-site/ another city/country, you are more likely to be impacted. 3. Departments may have skewed gender or racial ratios. It is best to stay away to avoid discrimination (to be fair, this has less to do with culture and more to do with who the head of the department is).
