Pros
-Almost every piece of software you can imagine is available to you, including AI -Most Associates and above get 4 weeks paid vacation plus bank holidays -Industry leader in banking technology -Challenging work environment teaches you to quickly hone your social engineering skills to get work done
Cons
-Almost no collegial atmosphere due to the vast workload, it's always the next sprint, next release, next initiative. -Standing out amongst your fellow employees from a performance perspective seems to be only the beginning of steps to get promoted. If you don't network or directly get seen by senior leaders due to some extraordinary effort or initiative, you won't move up. -New Return to Office policies are outdated and even archaic for tech workers. If we're on zoom even while in the office, and we work long hours to meet deadlines that make the company money, then what's the point of the additional burden? Hybrid, fine. 5 days in office is just punitive.
