Pros

Can still work fully remote, some nice coworkers, good learning resources

Cons

Terrible management and low morale. Had a sexist manager early on who ruined my career trajectory - I’ve had a new manager every year since I’ve been here. DEI is non existent. If you’re a WOC, don’t even bother joining - you’ll be treated like support staff and managed out no matter your credentials. Upper management is only interested in cost cutting so salaries are weak compared to the industry especially NYC. Hardly any raises/adjustments in 4 years - on my way out the door with a 40% increase in base at another bank. The path for promotions/mobility is nonexistent - even the good managers have no guidelines or follow through for this at all. It’s basically who they like on the day they have to make decisions. Some people do all the work and the others get all the credit. Bad management and low salaries/no bonuses are driving all the good employees out, so everyone else is stuck picking up the pieces. Doesn’t have the greatest reputation - I’ve had people not even in the industry ask me why I work here after the consent order and corruption.

Pros

Never come. All the positions and all area is same terrible. HR official turnover rate reach to 15%, some core hard working positions even can be a higher rate

Cons

They don't respect employees, there's a suit in New York area initiated by previous bankers in 2023. Because they asked for a lot of volunteering work on formal job but never pay
