Pros
Wonderful brand with solid products. Global presence and smart talent. Working with many types of financial institutions is a privilege and a great way to grow your business acumen.
Cons
For whatever reason the people who hold the power are not nice individuals. They make it a point to sully peoples reputations, damage their career advancement and generally make life miserable if they so choose. HR knows and does nothing to address it. The performance management practices target individuals they no longer want to be part of the organization systematically weeding out tenured and older employees. Bad interpersonal behavior, gossiping, maligning and demeaning commentary by middle managers is commonplace. Good rule of thumb is trust no one. That said, if you are part of the clique and the "in" crowd your star and fortunes will rise. It is really all in who you know.
