JPMorgan Chase – “This is a great place for work / life balance”

Pros

While JPMorgan Chase is a very big company, and managerial approaches differ, I have found that everywhere I have worked within the bank, the work / life balance has been very good. I have been able to take vacations, sick time, and other absentee days without being made to feel bad about it. Also, having the ability to work from home when necessary is a big plus as well. Although this would not apply to all positions in the bank.

Cons

This is a very large company, and really good talent may be over looked for a while, and may take time to be recognized by upper management.

Advice to Senior Management

Keep your eyes on the future. Don't be afraid to intelligently embrace the benefits that new technology offers.
