Pros

Looks good on your resume.

Cons

Worst culture - very hierarchical, even if seniors know a lot less than the juniors, they will make sure to make the junior staff feel inferior and worthless. Unless you serve as a slave to the senior that works from home almost everyday while you work away 60+ hours a week doing admin work, you're not going to get anywhere. Overall, the bank is stuck 50 years behind. This is not a place for innovation, the recruitment team does a job making it look like a place of desire but do not be fooled. The infrastructure and technology is extremely outdated. The mindset of most senior staff is stuck in the 1950s. They make every effort to ensure not to promote women or minorities.

Pros

Annual raises and variable bonuses, Hybrid schedule, kind people, lots of events for making connections

Cons

Difficult to get an interview unless you have a referral. Otherwise not really any cons, I’ve only been here for a year so can’t really speak yet to any hindrances that might come when trying to get promoted, etc.
