Good Management Nice environment to work in

Cons

Currently Hybrid mode (No WFH) Based on the department, one might or might not enjoy the work

Pros

Interesting and challenging work in a competitive environment and field. If you work in the 'right' department, your potential for learning, development and advancement is limitless. Skills and competencies are easily transferable to other financial services firms, particularly those on Wall Street. Flexible schedules are available, and, in some cases, encouraged. There is a diversity of opportunities given the structure of the company so there is something for everyone.

Cons

Huge disparities in employee treatment across departments. Some managers promote and reward performance for even mediocre employees; while other managers do little to reward stellar workers. The pay does not keep pace with industry standards.

Nice work environment Can easily reach out to senior management

Restructuring happens almost in a yearly basis
