Pros

NONE NV GO THERE ever!

Cons

FULL OF TOXICS AND BULLYING PLACE. esp the WM ops dept. with extremely toxic teammates who sends nasty emails and constant criticism EVERY SINGLE DAY! they act like CEO of the bank all the time! despite always giving them respect, they return you with nasty emails and stares and arrogant attitude. always criticise and treating other colleagues negatively. can easily get depression if you work there! BulIying is being allowed by the boss. such a shame.

Pros

above industry average vacation days ~30 days per year, but no personal days and no sick days

Cons

Everything else you can think of: - Stubborn and incompetent Senior Management - The bank is constantly doing org change, nearshoring, offshoring initiatives to save cost. If you have team members leaving, they will not replace the HC and the rest of the team end up doing more work each person - which results in more people leaving - People care here is a joke. The coronavirus is getting serious and heard that the bank still has not announced mandatory WFH policy for non-essential employees. If any, they just figured out a rotational schedule for teams to go into the office on a day ago - 5 steps BEHIND any other banks in NYC! - Diversity does not exist here: you look at the MD/D level and above, most Management in this company is French, except the few who need to face American clients or regulators. Most senior leaders at the bank have been here forever (likely their first job out of college) and have absolutely no idea about the outside world, trends, best practices and are so stubborn to take in any different ideas - No career growth opportunity above associate / vp level: Little to no salary increase after promotion (0-5K) & way slower than industry average promotion cycle - HR and Marketing like to do cosmetic work such as different culture events, talks but nothing material has changed - Significantly behind in IT infra and applications..many are from the last century and will never get upgraded because the goal is to move to a new platform (been talking about this for 5+ years...)
