Pros

Being a global company has some great perks, none greater than deep pockets. Even though North America has been hemorrhaging, emerging markets have kept the company going.

Cons

There are no growth opportunities unless you are willing to check in your integrity at the door. Performance uses forced rankings and HR in its infinite wisdom decided that a team of 10 can only have 2 good performers so regardless of actual accomplishments, they are rated low. Promotions, bonuses and raises are based on rating, which is good in theory but in this case just goes to brown nosers.

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
