Pros

the only pro I have is location since is in midtown. Benefits are decent, is like any other firm. If you want the minimum training and tons of OT with under pay. This Bank is right for you.

Cons

I worked with this firm for 6 years. Within 6 years it never change for local hires to promote internally. Local hires are treated like second last citizen. All supervisor and management positions are held for ex pats (japanese employees). Once they are promoted they move to another office and another ex pat comes in. Its like playing musical chair for manager's/supervisor positions for ex pats.
