      Pros

      Benefits are good if you have worked there more than 2 years and are grandfathered in the old plan. Flexible working and working from home has finally arrived at the Investment Bank. People are nice. It's a friendly place to work. Salaries are average with the industry.

      Cons

      Technology is shocking and very behind other banks due to lack of investment. Cost cutting has been too severe, constant changes in mgmt decisions and failed location strategies has caused talent to leave. Bonuses are below average.

      Pros

      Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

      Cons

      Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
