Pros

Corporate & Investment Banking was a good training for careers in the future. Analysts training program consisted of 6 weeks class room courses in accounting, corporate finance and financial modeling. Access to Senior bankers is very good. Job responsibility and engaging assignments.

Cons

Investment Banking did not pay the usual high salary even though you have to deal with the same stuff. A lot of managing directors who did not pull their weight. Definitely still a good old boys club. Bonus for analyst class of 2006-2007 was only 30% of base ($60k).

Pros

It's a job and it puts food on the table. The vacation & sick leave benefits are good.

Cons

Working at SunTrust doesn't put much food on the table. The retirement plans are always changing and not for the good of the employee. The health insurance is very expensive. Staff is constantly being reduced. There is always more work and less pay and no opportunities to advance in career or financial goals. Training is poor. Constantly spending money on new technology and programs when the old stuff worked just fine. The only advancement that I will find is to leave because here you are truly just a number. If VP isn't in your title, well pack a lunch, it's going to be a long day and lord knows management isn't buying. As an "old timer" it is sad that I have very little positive things to say.
