Pros

The benefits are excellent, especially the 3 weeks vacation to start, plus all the bank holidays. The pay is competitive. International co-workers made it a stimulating place to work.

Cons

Advancement heavily dependent on one's immediate manager. If one's immediate manager was stalled in his career or not highly thought of, it is difficult for those under him to advance. Since it is a French company, assignments in the United States seemed to be a perk for the better French employees, or a sort of dumping ground for the less competent French employees. Understandable, since the United States is not a large market for them.

Pros

Great vacation, but that's about it!

Cons

Compensation is way below market and BNP prides its 'compensation restraint.' Great place to start, but not to stay or advance. Don't try to get a promotion or notice unless you are French- it's useless and you won't get recognized.
