Pros

- Good benefits among peers in financial industry. - Shift to new technologies and hence good opportunities to learn.

Cons

- Management heavy, not a great place for individual contributors. Your inputs might most probably will be shot down. - Political environment, - Though new technologies, very slow adoption and lots of incompetent hires for the roles. - Internal opportunities are there on paper but rarely go to internal employee. - DEI though advertised heavily, is just a hog wash. No actions are taken when bias is reported. Seems like they don’t know how to go about it. - If you stuck with a bad leader which is a very high probability, better leave.
