Pros

It took years but I finally have a great work life balance. It depends on your role expectations, team dynamic and definitely appetite of your manager in terms what type of flexibility you can get. Established roles which limit the unknown - when interviewing if you ask about role expectations and specifics, you should get a clear answer. Not much is undefined. Great opportunities to continue your education and upskill yourself for the future - endless really. Tuition assistance is wonderful Lots of Business Resource Groups to get involved in - supporting Women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, those with Disabilities etc. Plenty of networking opportunities - internal mobility is looked highly upon and many take advantage.

Cons

Benefits are very expensive which is surprising for such a large company Depending on the team - cultures vary greatly and you may come across very uncollaborative colleagues People are overworked so tend to have negative attitudes at times - but they are great people Do more with Less has been a constant over my tenure. Hard to hire good people due to low compensation - hard to retain for same reason. CEO has a broad brush negative attitude towards the concept of remote workers and their productivity which is out of touch. Will be difficult to find any remote opportunities.

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).
