Pros

Unlimited PTO. Nothing else comes to mind.

Cons

Low pay. No raises. Bonus not related to performance. Work is mundane and since a significant number of people took a package, there’s too much work.

Pros

Strong financial backing, long history, great potential

Cons

Indecisive, too passive to leverage the market, way too oriented toward social engineering as of late, town-hall's are slathered with social issues discussion and show the lack of focus on being a financial services institution

Pros

The pay and benefits are great.

Cons

Entrenched bureaucracy - middle management is duplicitous - the political environment is uncomfortable there. The ceiling for advancement is dependent on department, but most hires are internal lifers who lack external chops and the usual politics with allies/favorites can be expected. From 2017-2020 I witnessed three separate rounds of relatively large layoffs.
