Bank of New York Mellon – “A Big Financial Machine”

Pros

Once you are "in the system" you could very well work here until retirement. In other words, people tend not to get fired.

Cons

If you don't mind being a small cog in a gigantic financial machine, then this is the company for you. Senior management seems to be very disconnected and out of touch with the people who actually do the work. This company is old and it feels old. Very difficult to cultivate new ideas and actually get things done.

Advice to Senior Management
