Pros

There is a minimum word count for this field, but truly there are no positives to working for Chase.

Cons

- Your entire team will be in India - Your manager(s) will be extremely rude, order givers that don't care one bit about your happiness or personal growth - Endless sea of random deadlines with no rhyme or reason to why - Horrible code base, no desire or time to improve things - Salary is garbage - Benefits are slightly above garbage - Ridiculous time tracking for in-office. Badge in and out, get chewed out if you don't meet 60% of hours a week in the office

Pros

They treat people well overall. It's all about connecting to others to get anything done, so if you're great with networking and maintaining connections it's a good place to work. Honestly the kindest layoff I've ever experienced, including genuine internal support to find another job. Still doing meaningful DOI work, including some of the best friendly benefits out there.

Cons

If you don't have a highly specialized cyber security skill set or work at a main campus in Texas, Ohio, Delaware, New York or New Jersey don't expect to ever move up the ladder. Staying focused on goals OR successfully communicating strategy pivots seems to be beyond most MDs in Global Technology. They seem to be having a re-org problem at the moment. I had 5 managers in the last 365 days I was there, hardly time to get any work done and then challenged at the end to show impact or delivery, all you can do is shrug and say 'tell me how, when you moved me every 2 months?"
