Pros

High pay, work isn't too difficult, good work/life balance, they never fire anyone, good benefits, opportunities for advancement if you can stand working there

Cons

Insane bureaucracy, huge CYA culture, intellectually stifling, terrible IT, boring work unless you're into selling credit cards. I guess if you're looking for a non-challenging job that pays pretty well, go ahead.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
