Ageism Rife

Pros

Has great potential if they get rid of select utterly incompetent managers at senior and middle levels

Cons

Highly political , full of Cronyism which is perpetuated by decades old tenured politicians who cling on for survival and manipulate system for their not companies benefit Rampant ageism where senior experienced staff are treated like a threat rather than an asset and will be ceremonially culled as and when political opportunism arises. Will be replaced with cheap low taken resources overseas in areas like India. If by far the most unpleasant place I have ever worked

Pros

Stability, Benefits, Salary, Location, Size

Cons

Management for the Financial Intelligence Unit is disinterested in the employees. Process was relocated to Arizona for a more affordable work force. Benefits were gradually eroded once the Japanese parent took over. It was an entirely different company by the time I left. You will definitely be treated like a "body" in a position.

Pros

Working from home allowed but there is no consistent policy. Relative high base salary Very lenient in sponsoring foreign employees Very good work/life balance

Cons

Low bonuses, no appreciation for the work and small base salary increases No performance driven culture. They should get rid of the non-performing employees...unfortunately not many will be left then IT systems are outdated, the implementation processes take forever. What a normal company can do in 2 months takes them 12 months due to the bureaucracy and non-agile implementations. Senior Management has very little leaderships skills. I worked for several companies before and I have never seen such poor management. this applies to Unionbank and MUFG in NYC. When executives are talking about the company and how it is all changing for the better, then the employees always wonder if they work for the same company because nothing much of what the execs say is reflected in the day-to-day life A silo-approach where managers have very little impact across silo. This impacts very negatively the output produced (inefficiencies) HR departments seems to be non existent, only when entering or exiting the firm.
