Pros

Cushty if that's what you are interested in. Bank acts as a gravy train for Gen X directors to send their kids to private school.

Cons

EDs and MDs absolutely high on their own supply. Directionless with no long-term strategy. Structures not in place to allow decision making. Too many amateurs. Weighed down by pointless bureacracy, teams that have no purpose, tick box mentality, unable to take off under its own weight. Lots of cosplaying at being a bank, but is in no way a serious player and would not survive without suckling at the JPM teet. Toxic management, unable to tolerate challenge.

Pros

-location & team are important. I had an amazing team and location. Rare, but amazing for making money when aligned. -you can learn the financial industry -reputable company, great CEO -you are highly compensated to win over affluent families banking/wealth/lending relationships.

Cons

-we have 5 managers and each of them get replaced bi-annually. -The management hired does not know anything about finance, yet tasked to manage financial professionals. Zero standards for recruitment. Imagine this: An accounting firm is looking for a new accountant. The manager goes out and hires 5 "accountants" but not a single one of them is a CPA. You think, "how could this happen?" That's JPMC for you. -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS.***
