Pros

Good resources in developing your own career brand.

Cons

Behind the headlines, this place is a train wreck. Compensation is flat or falling unless you are an executive. Top performers have capped compensation below market with little to no upward mobility. HR system is on par with the DMV. I'd be embarrassed if my network saw what I put up with just to have the LinkedIn cred.

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).
