Pros

The paid and benefits were good.

Cons

You are only a number to management and HR. They do not care how you grow within the company. It does not matter your experience or skill or how long you work at the company. If a new executive came on board, he or she can layoff or offshore you without a blink of an eye. They only care about how the stock is doing. This is especially true working in Texas.

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).
