Pros

- Great salary and benefits package - Great training and extra events - if only you had the time to attend them

Cons

- No equipment, you have to have all your own - Terrible communications: 100+ emails a day but no regular team meetings. No-one spoke to me on my first day. Never had a 1-2-1 meeting with my manager in 5 months - No training for role, but a million banking regulation trainings you have to complete. No time to do any extra learning/training - People work loads of extra hours and login and respond to emails when they're on holiday - Incompetent management, constantly firefighting, total chaos

Pros

Great collaboration between work groups. There used to be room for advancement and diversity in the workplace.

Cons

Lack of job security for several years culminating in a layoff after nearly 3 decades with the firm. Like many places, benefits, raises, and advancement opportunities diminished over time as the firm decided to offshore roles.
