Pros

Healthy atmosphere in teams Great culture of Innovation Great place to learn about financial domain Great place to learn processes Good salary Cab facility You can mostly expect to get weekends off.

Cons

Confused top management, who think themselves as visionaries. Create a strategy, follow it for 3 years and dump it. And the loop starts all over again! Goals given to individuals are so generic, that they do not know what they are trying to achieve.
