Pros

close to home, great for work life balance. they have a diverse culture (been with them for 15 years). moving up or laterally within the company is encouraged.

Cons

getting promoted is very hard. some departments are not as accomodating to people with families and require longer hours.

Pros

good work/life balance, IT positions are pretty much 9 - 5 in the Chicago office. good time off/vacation policy. technology seems to be fairly up to date.

Cons

lack of growth opportunity and slow salary increase (I've heard that some employees do not receive a raise for 3 straight years!). the work is pretty mudane in the Chicago office. for better career advancement and more challenging work, have to relocate to Stamford office.

Pros

In current market its a safe haven as its backed by a nationalized swiss bank . Also the management was smart enought to write off its bad assets before anyone else when the mortgage meltdown started.

Cons

they stopped serving beer on fridays :( . The headoffice is at Stamford , so lot of projects are run out of Stamford . So for the NY/NJ folks, you might have to make a trip to Stamford once a while , may be more often in some cases
