Pros

Flexible working hours, stable pay, and some recognition of talent. Lots of team building activities, outings, and celebrations (sometimes a bit *forced* and much to handle for my taste). Continual growth. Largely co-located environment of > 20,000 employees makes for a unique, large-corporation experience with desirable amenities.

Cons

Non-technical leadership making sweeping long term goals for a largely tech oriented company. Wasted and/or strained use of the top 5% of the workforce (exacerbated by the hyperbolic visions of the future while continuing to hire lackluster talent in bulk instead of focused talent in smaller quantities).

Pros

Life work balance, great benefit package and nice colleagues. The goal of the company is providing the best service to its members. So, they treat employees the best to encourage them to do the same for members.

Cons

Slow IT support, limited interactions with industry. Banking business is not as mature as insurance.
